Undergraduate Study In New Zealand:

Study in New Zealand for Indian students after 12th may occur at New Zealand universities, the course of study for a Bachelor degree consists of a prescribed number of units, papers or courses. In each subject there are usually first-year (stage I or 100—level), second-year (stage 2 or 200 level) and third-year (stage 3 or 300 level) courses. A second year course may be commenced only after prescribed passes in the subject at stage I and a third-year course only after required passes in the subject at stage 2.

Postgraduate Study In New Zealand:

In order to attain a Masters in New Zealand for Indian students, the first degree a student is able to gain in New Zealand is as elsewhere, a Bachelor degree. With a completed Bachelor degree, a graduate may be able to go on to a Masters degree. These degrees may be awarded with honors, an indication both of the challenge the course presents and of the student achievement in it.

Postgraduate Diploma:

A one-years full-time, designed for graduates, it builds on the subject matter in the academic field of the previous degree.

Graduate Diploma:

A 1 year, full-time course of study for graduates. It does not always require its students to have prior learning or experience in the subject matter of the Diploma.
Master Degree: The Master degree is open to those who have completed a Bachelor degree. The course of study is usually of one or two year of full-time study or its equivalent in part-time study. The work required normally builds upon the prior knowledge gained in the major part of the Bachelor degree, and most or all of it is in that discipline. It is at a more advanced level that is normally reflected in the content of the work; in the mode of teaching, which are likely to emphasize seminar presentation; and in provision of research experience for the candidate. A thesis is an account of a substantial piece of research. Many Master degrees include a thesis component, and in some cases, particularly those that are taken after a four-year Bachelor (Honors) course, the degrees may be thesis-only. However, increasingly Masters degrees by papers, or papers plus research, are becoming available. The successful student is expected to show, as the title implies, a real grasp of the subject, demonstrated by an understanding of the discipline, a capacity to reflect upon it, and an ability to undertake research into it.
Doctorate: New Zealand Doctoral Research scholarships are a significant educational opportunity. Doctorate programs generally take at least 3 years of full time study to complete. It is a fully research based degree. PHD students pay domestic tuition fee that is a ‘benefit’ of fee difference from international fees to domestic fees. Scholarships are also awarded to the students on the basis of academic merit and research ability by the university. The scholarship’s doctoral degrees are in research in New Zealand universities. The scholarship funding covers international tuition fee, a monthly living allowance, travel, health, insurance, books and thesis allowance.
