Te Punenga is the name given for the Māori Postgraduate programme offered at Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha (UC). This name was chosen in 2015 because the word Punenga reflects the level of study our ākonga Māori postgraduates. Te Punenga are to encourage whakawhanaungatanga between ākonga, and enhance your academic skills, and support your personal development needs.
