The University of Waikato offers regular campus tours for prospective students, running on Friday afternoons throughout the academic year. These one-hour guided tours provide an opportunity to explore the University's Hamilton campus, see teaching facilities, student spaces, and accommodation options, and ask questions about study programs and university life. While primarily designed for prospective students rather than as teacher professional development, these tours can be valuable for secondary school careers advisors, guidance counselors, and teachers accompanying students on tertiary education visits. The tours provide firsthand knowledge of the University's offerings that teachers can use to better advise students about post-secondary pathways. The University of Waikato, based in Hamilton and Tauranga in New Zealand's Waikato region, offers undergraduate and postgraduate programs across a range of disciplines and is known for its strong connections to industry and community.

Key Takeaways

Firsthand knowledge of university facilities and campus life; Understanding of available study programs and pathways; Information to support student advising about tertiary education options

Evidence base: Based on direct experience of the University of Waikato's campus, facilities, and program offerings
