Education News – Otago Polytechnic | Te Pūkenga Student Showcase promises a whirlwind of activity

Next week kicks off a whirlwind of activity at Otago Polytechnic | Te Pūkenga, as we celebrate our annual Student Showcase.

Beginning on Monday 13 November and running for 10 days at our Dunedin Campus, Student Showcase is about promoting to the world the work that our ākonga have produced throughout the year.

“From sport and exercise to architecture, fashion, product and communication design, art, photography, horticulture, information technology, engineering and beyond, our ākonga do it all with incredible skill and passion,” says Chris WIlliamson, Executive Director, Otago Polytechnic.

“That’s why we’re so proud to shine a light on them and show off what they’ve been up to this year.”

Our final-year Bachelor of Applied Science (Sport, Exercise and Health) ākonga share their findings and experiences across a broad range of community projects, from massage therapy to performance analysis to community wellbeing.
