Equip yourself with the knowledge and empathy to lead cross-cultural interactions. Through the study of linguistics you’ll grow your ability to drive social change and shape the future of our nation.

Linguistics is the study of language, including:

• Its structure and meaning
• How it is learnt and used
• What our language says about who we are and where we come from.

From interacting with friends to communicating with colleagues, language plays a fundamental role in both our public and private lives. This includes written and spoken communication, problem-solving, and social and cultural awareness. Our lecturers will encourage you to develop a deeper understanding of your own self-identity and social interactions.

Massey University’s Master of Business Studies combines study of advanced theory with research. It gives you the skills you need to progress your career, or continue to further study.

• You will learn the processes and disciplines involved in high-level in-depth research and how to apply them to business. You will complete and present a comprehensive written report on an independent research topic.
• We have strong relationships with industry. We will help you draw on experience you may have to give your learning context and relevance to the real world.
• The Master of Business Studies will also develop your oral and written communication skills to the level expected of senior business leaders.

With Massey’s Master of Arts (Economics) you’ll build on your undergraduate interests and develop your analysis and research skills. With a Master of Arts (Economics) at Massey, you’ll investigate how businesses decide what to produce and how many people to employ, explore how people decide what to consume, and learn about big-picture world economics.

This program will help you in your own decision-making and in better understanding developments in the economy and society in general. It offers ways of thinking about the world that let you make the best of what you have, and improve on it.

Studying history will give you a new appreciation for the world around you. History is a subject as large as our recorded past. Our cultural heritages, literature, arts, religions, politics, economics, social behaviors, buildings, and landscapes all derive from past influences.

Studying history gives an understanding of where we have been and how the world has changed over time. It gives an appreciation of how people have faced challenges at different times, and all with the benefit of hindsight.

Become equipped with the concepts, theories, and facts you need to make sense of the world around you.

Politics is about contestations for power and how we make decisions in society – who gets what, when, and how – from the local community to the nation and internationally.

Politics is concerned with the conflict of ideas and values. It has to do with who governs. It’s also has to do with how and why decisions that affect all of us are made. That could vary from how much students should pay to study at university to whether the UN should sanction military interventions.
