University of Auckland v/s University of Canterbury


I've got a letter from both UOA and UOC for masters in construction management through AJV which one would you suggest to accept?

Ans : They are both equally very good universities and there is no doubt that they are both top-quality universe it is I would strongly recommend that you consider going to Christchurch because of the fact that Christchurch is still going through the rebuild which it had after the earthquake so there is still a lot of construction activity happening in Christchurch and which is the reason that you will be able to translate well into work after you complete not at the reserve no work in Auckland but the other advantage of being in Christchurch is that if you do find a relevant job of a completely a course you will also get those extra 30 points towards immigration towards your resident visa in which can be a massive advantage because you know immigration the resident visa is you know the ones getting the highest number of points are obviously picked first from the boom so if you finish your course and find a job in Auckland and let's say you are at 170 points technically you have crossed at 160 and you can get into you can be picked from the pool and you can go through the resident visa process but if you are let's say add two hundred instead of 170 because you're in Christchurch and you're getting that extra 30 points yeah you're going to get big much faster and you know the processing would be much quicker as well and I think as a policy the government is trying to encourage people to move out of Auckland so purely from that point I think University of Canterbury is probably a good choice and fantastic University one of the most renowned universities in the world in fact we have nuclear power today in the world thanks to University of Canterbury because Sir Ernest Rutherford who is a wasn't a New Zealander did his research here at the University of Canterbury so it's quarter of fantastic history and then he did his research here and then he went on to you know do the work which led to the splitting of the atom which is why we have nuclear power today so uh I've been fortunate to be to go to the University of Canterbury a few times and fantastic place and great campus beautiful ambiance and Christchurch is a beautiful city to live as well.
