GISM Helps Sri Lankan Students to gain World-class Qualifications from Massey University in New Zealand
View(s):The Graduate Institute of Science and Management, which is known as “GISM”, helps students to study in New Zealand with affordable cost under a credit transfer arrangement. This study model works well with a saving of a significant amount of hard currency in this country. Developing a strong collaboration as the Education and Research Partner, GISM offers a number of Bachelors and Masters pathway programmes with the University of New Zealand, which is very much known as “Massey University”. This pathway programme enables our students to study in Sri Lanka and transfer to New Zealand to complete the remaining part of their degree under well-guided study and transfer arrangement.
Why New Zealand?
There are plenty of reasons why study in New Zealand is beneficial. Compared to many countries, living standards, quality education, sense of social and cultural qualities, equality is high in New Zealand. It is one of the top 500 universities in the world with excellent academics. It is popular for excellent academics in the world.
“New Zealand is the ideal place where there is Safety, quality of life, happiness, a great place to live, to have a family and to study. So, let me say that’s one of the most ideal locations to end up”,said Christopher Carey, Executive Director, Global Engagement at Massey University in New Zealand in his recent visit to Sri Lanka.
Job Opportunities
There is another benefit of studying in New Zealand. Students can stay two or three years on post study work visa and this is a great opportunity to apply for jobs and get experience in industry. The government itself lists the multiple ways of sourcing jobs in New Zealand for international students. Employment in New Zealand provides a great work culture experience and provides a work-life balance for the employees.
Safe and secure environment
New Zealand offers a safe and secure environment for international students. Auckland is one of the safest cities in the world with an outstanding quality of life. The country has a low crime rate and the people here are warm and friendly. International students are looked after well by New Zealand universities that are bound by a code of conduct imposed by the government.
Students from all over the world come to study in New Zealand. This gives students the opportunity to interact with a diverse group of people, a variety of cultures and backgrounds. This will improve your social skills, knowledge and appreciation of other people and cultures. Apart from these students can enjoy an exciting outdoor life ; beautiful sceneries in green hills, sandy beaches, rainforests and snow-capped mountains with the natural beauty of the country.

Aiming to make the transition as smooth as possible, GISM offers additional orientation programmes which empower the students to bridge the gap they encounter living in a totally different environment. All the members of the Board of Directors of GISM are qualified academics and experience engineers having exposure to both academia and industry and they share their international exposure with the students to educate them on New Zealand’s living style, legal system and, in academic, training on real world problem solving, and academic writing & communication skill development.
Study Programmes
With the Degree Pathway Arrangement, students can study their first year or first two years in Sri Lanka at GISM and move to Massey University to complete their degree. This is possible due to the Articulation Credit Transfer Programme through which students earn credits which are considered as equivalent to the credits offered in the relevant year/s of Massey University. This credit transfer arrangement will not cause any effect on the recognition of the qualification that the students gain from Massey University.Over 25 Bachelor degree majour pathways in Business, Information Science, Engineering, Construction, Agribusiness and Bioscience, and Masters pathways in Science (Bioscience), Construction, Quantity Surveying, Management and Emergency management are offered in collaboration with Massey University in New Zealand.
After completing their bachelor’s degree, GISM students receive a special 15% discount should they decide to continue with their Master Degree programme. Also, there is an opportunity for the students to be accompanied by their families when they go to New Zealand for master-level courses. Post completion, students can apply for a work visa. Upon finding a permanent job offer in New Zealand they will be qualified to apply for a permanent resident’s visa.
If you are joining GISM’s pathway arrangements, you can enter directly with Local or London A/L’s or, through GISM foundation course if you have good O/L results. If you already have a degree or equivalent qualification, you can join GISM to follow a postgraduate programme to transfer to Massey University to complete the Masters in one year.
