Working While Studying
Can students work while they’re studying?
The main purpose of a student visa or permit is to allow international students to study full time in New Zealand. However, in some cases students from overseas can have the conditions of their student permit varied to allow them a limited opportunity to work while studying.


They can undertake work:
to meet a course requirement for practical work experience
for up to 20 hours in any given week during the academic year (including holidays within the academic year) if they are:
undertaking a full-time, course of study at a private training establishment or tertiary institution and taking at least two academic years to complete, or
undertaking a full-time course of study culminating in a qualification that would qualify for points under the Skilled Migrant Category, or


undertaking a full-time, full secondary school year course of study in Years 12 or 13, provided they have written permission from their school and written parental consent, or
engaged in a full-time, course of study of at least six months duration, at a Private Training Establishment or Tertiary Institution, and a visa or immigration officer is satisfied that the primary purpose of the course of study is to develop English language skills, and, at the time of application for a student visa or permit, the student has an International English Language Testing System (IELTS) overall band score of 5.0 or above


during the Christmas-New Year holiday period if they are undertaking a full-time course of study of 12 months or more duration.

Can students work in New Zealand after they finish their course of study?
Students can also work after they finish their course of study if:
they have an offer of employment relevant to their qualification and successfully completed a course in New Zealand that:


had a minimum completion time of three years, or
would qualify for points under the Skilled Migrant Category
they do not have an offer of employment but have successfully completed a qualification in New Zealand that would qualify for points under the Skilled Migrant Category of Residence Policy, for a maximum of six months, to transition from study, to work, to residence with a Graduate Job Search Work Visa/Permit.

Visa and Work Permits New Zealand

VISA

Visa and Work Permits

To study in New Zealand, international students will probably require a student visa and/or permit.

Some people will need a student visa, some people won’t. But, most international students will require a permit that sets out the conditions of their stay here.

Students may not need a visa or permit if they are:

a New Zealand citizen, or

a New Zealand resident, or

the holder of a valid Australian passport, or

the holder of a current Australian Permanent Resident Visa, or

the holder of a current Australian Resident Return Visa.

People on short courses


If the course of study is a single short course of less than three calendar months duration, and is approved or exempted by NZQA, the student does not need a student visa, and can apply for a visitor visa.

If the student wants to study two or more short courses of study or training (whether at the same time, or one after the other), he or she needs a student visa or permit.



Note: We do not consider a term spent studying at a primary, intermediate or secondary school to be a short course, and a student visa/permit must be applied for.

Study MBBS (Medicine) in New Zealand
( From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )

The two New Zealand medical schools, Auckland and Otago, style their degrees as MB ChB. The New Zealand MB ChB degrees take at least 6 years after commencing university study depending upon graduate or undergraduate entry.

University of Auckland, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences

University of Otago Dunedin School of Medicine

University of Auckland, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences
The University of Auckland's Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences (formerly known as The University of Auckland School of Medicine.) was established in 1968 at its present site in Grafton, Auckland. Prior to this, the University of Otago had taught some students from the final years of its medical course in Auckland through a branch faculty of the Dunedin School of Medicine.LocationAll undergraduate students "combined first year" which is largely based on the city campus, but from that time on, almost all class room teaching is done in Grafton.The pre-clinical building is on the opposite side of Park road to Auckland Hospital in Grafton, beside the Auckland Domain. The name of the building reflects the historical pre-dominance of medicine within the faculty - the three years before a medicine student begins doing their 'rounds' (practical in hospitals) are known as the 'pre-clinical' years.
