As a centre of global education

No educational establishments can change the whole world, but they can develop individuals who can drive the change. IPU New Zealand is an incubator, to which students from different parts of the world come and learn together, and from which they depart to all over the world. We are the hub for international education that goes beyond borders. We have already marked the 33th anniversary and will continue our educational pursuits, connected firmly with Japan and the world.
