Pacific engagement
At UTS, we are committed to providing supportive learning environments that acknowledge diverse experiences and backgrounds. We want to ensure that students from Pasifika cultural backgrounds are heard, and their stories and experiences celebrated in ways that enhance the academic journey.
Pasifika Student Success
The UTS Pasifika Student Success team will support students to:
navigate UTS systems and processes
successfully transition from high school or TAFE to university
understand postgraduate study and whether it's the best option for them
learn how to balance study while also working.
