US series studies Massey education
Four half-hour TV segments and YouTube clips profile Massey’s education and research expertise in food safety, New Zealand society, aviation and veterinary medicine.
Filming took place at the Manawatu campus in early July, and will be broadcast on America’s East Coast in August.
US host, educational consultant and author Steven Roy Goodman has visited countries all around the world, portraying different aspects of the university sector. However, this is his first time filming in the Southern Hemisphere. The series has screened 123 episodes to date.
“It’s an educational show where I aim to bring the ideas and news of universities around the world to the general public in the best way I can,” said Steven.
Steven singled out the veterinary medicine discussion as one that would be of particular interest to students from the United States because of the Massey Veterinary School’s American Veterinary and Medical Association (AVMA) accreditation.Steven was also fascinated by the discussion on New Zealand society and Massey’s new BA degree with the head of the School of Māori Art, Knowledge and Education (Te Pūtahi-a-Toi) Professor Meihana Durie, and Pro Vice-Chancellor of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, Distinguished Professor Paul Spoonley.
“For me the discussion on New Zealand society was particularly eye-opening and not at all what I originally envisioned – I don’t think people in the US know a great deal about New Zealand society, but I think they will be introduced to it now,” said Steven.Project leader and International Development Manager for Massey, Bruce Graham, says the project will help promote Massey’s research, Study Abroad opportunities and specialist degree programmes in the US.
“This will also add to the growing reputation of New Zealand’s wider university sector, and the capability and expertise of these institutions.”
The TV episodes can be found on YouTube, and will also be included in Massey’s webpages and social media sites. You can view them below:

Victoria offering New Zealand’s first ethical leadership MOOC
Ethical Leadership in a Changing World is the latest Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) delivered through VictoriaX, the VUW edX platform.
The six-week course will teach students the theory and practice of ethical leadership, with a focus on organisations, through the New Zealand perspective.
Course instructor Professor Karin Lasthuizen, Brian Picot Chair in Ethical Leadership in VUW’s School of Management, says the course will help learners explore the role of ethics in organisational decision making.
“We focus on organisations in this course: exploring the role of ethics in organisational decision-making, analysing the actions of leaders from an ethical perspective, and helping learners apply these ideas to their own style of leadership,” said Professor Lasthuizen.
“Drawing on case studies from New Zealand—one of the least corrupt countries in the world, according to Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI)— the course also features recognised leaders from the country’s public, private and NGO sectors to inform students about the main issues that ethical leadership should address.”
This is the fourth MOOC for the VUW edX platform, which has a wide global reach. The platform has attracted well over 16,000 international learners to date, ranging in age from 10 to 90-years-old.
The course follows Antarctica: From Geology to Human History and New Zealand Landscape as Culture: Maunga (Mountains), and Restorative Justice and Practice: Emergence of a Social Movement, launched last year, and New Zealand Landscape as Culture: Islands (Ngā Motu), launched in 2017.
Ethical Leadership in a Changing World starts 3 July 2019.

University of Auckland launches new Aulin College in China
Aulin College is a joint institute with China’s Northeast Forestry University (NEFU) in the city of Harbin, Heilongjiang Province. It took on its first cohort of approximately 270 Chinese students in September, and will deliver courses at bachelor’s and master’s level in biotechnology, chemistry, computer science and technology – big data and ecology.
Students of Aulin College will be taught in part by University of Auckland academic staff on NEFU’s campus, then transfer to Auckland in July 2022.
Education New Zealand Director for Greater China, Miranda Herbert, says the launch of Aulin College is another significant milestone in the educational relationship between New Zealand and China.
“Transnational education is a key strategy in the internationalisation of New Zealand education,” she says. “New Zealand places great importance on its education relationship with China, and I’m delighted to see our institutions continue to strengthen their connections.”
This is the second joint institute between Chinese and New Zealand providers. The first was between the University of Waikato and Zhejiang University City College in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province in eastern China, at undergraduate level in finance, computer graphic design and design media. The institute was launched in 2017, building on 15 years of collaboration through a joint programme in finance.
The Chinese Ministry of Education’s website lists 20 active joint programmes between Chinese and New Zealand providers at bachelor’s level and above. These include Massey University and Hebei University of Technology’s programme in the ‘Internet of Things’; Dalian Ocean University and Otago Polytechnic’s programme in Mechanic Engineering and Automation; Jilin Animation Institute and New Zealand Media Design School’s programme in Animation and Yunnan Agricultural University and Lincoln University’s programme in Agricultural and Forestry Economic Management.
Education New Zealand’s team in China published a market intelligence report on transnational education in August, which you can find on IntelliLab.

Education New Zealand launches Brand Protect 2.0 Campaign
On 23 November, ENZ will be launching a digital brand campaign informally known as ‘Brand Protect 2’.
This is a direct continuation of the Brand Protect campaign that ran July to August, and became our most successful brand awareness campaign to date. Research shows us that global sentiment towards New Zealand remains positive, so this is a key moment to leverage this attention to tell the education story in-market.
The new iteration will run in Indonesia, the UK, and Viet Nam from 23 November-23 December, with China following in January. Our campaign activity will be supported by a range of content on our own social media channels.
In addition to the content, a new landing page has been developed to further underline New Zealand education values and draw a connection between our global reputation and the strength of our education system. As well as this, audiences will be directed to explore their future study options on SINZ and join our social communities.
Please email brand@enz.govt.nz for all questions and enquiries, or speak to your ENZ representative.

Education New Zealand’s Brand Protect our most successful brand campaigns to date
Both campaigns exceeded previous ENZ results and were well above industry standards. These results, alongside the brand tracking research, have affirmed that global appetite for a New Zealand education remains high.
“We have learnt that our message resonates globally with people who are now seeing New Zealand in a whole new light,” ENZ Director Brand, Clayton Foster, says.
The second brand protect campaign – also known as Brand Protect 2.0 – ran from November to December 2020. It targeted the UK, Vietnam and Indonesia, and utilised the same video as the first campaign.
Brand Protect 2.0 reached 47 million people and achieved a high view through rate of 33.79 percent – or one in three viewers watched the video to a meaningful extent. The overall engagement rate was also high at 29.42 percent.
The first global brand campaign ran from July to August 2020. For a modest investment of $190,000 in Germany, Indonesia and Brazil, this campaign reached more than 30 million people across the three key markets and achieved an engagement rate of 22.35 percent. One in four people who came across this campaign watched the video to a meaningful extent.
The Brand Protect campaigns are a key part of the Recovery Plan’s third workstream, ‘Transforming to a more sustainable future state’. They leverage the positive global sentiment towards New Zealand to keep the dream of a New Zealand education alive in-market.

Girls in Tech plugs women into a career with computers
This year’s lucky recipients – the top 18 out of 436 total applicants – will have the opportunity to participate in fully funded courses with Hacktiv8, an Indonesian coding bootcamp and training provider.
“We are so glad to be able to offer further learning opportunities to women in Indonesia who are either already in tech or thinking about entering this fast-growing industry,” ENZ Programme Manager, Naluri Bella Wati, said.
It’s the sister initiative to ENZ and Girls in Tech Indonesia’s Arisan Digital 2020, a series of workshops delivered to members of Girls in Tech Indonesia and members of the public throughout last year.
The workshops featured top New Zealand academics and covered a range of topics, including cyber security, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, big data, and more. A total of 1,141 women across 20 cities in Indonesia participated in the hybrid and then virtual sessions.
“This industry-specific partnership with Girls in Tech allowed us to accomplish two key things: position New Zealand as a world leader in the area of tech education, and second, to showcase New Zealand’s unique teaching style in an innovative, offshore format,” Desiree said.
Both Arisan 2020 and the Girls in Tech Scholarship are part of the government’s Recovery Plan for International Education, under the internationalisation section of the ‘strengthening the system’ stream.
