Study
The NCRE offers inter-disciplinary study, insight into pioneering research and access to exciting activities that help to provide a rich understanding of the EU and its relationships with New Zealand, the Indo-Pacific, and the wider global community.
While you study, enjoy the exceptional academic support and professional development from internships, scholarships, research placements, exchanges and travel opportunities to conferences, Model EU’s and workshops both domestically and internationally.
