Albany Campus

The Albany campus offers state-of-the-art facilities in a modern campus on Auckland's North Shore. Study and learning facilities are both spacious and contemporary. Classrooms are fully AV equipped, teaching is interactive, and the atmosphere is friendly, all providing a great environment in which to study. The Albany campus is a celebration of modern architecture in a Mediterranean hillside village concept. The new recreation center, which opened in 2004, offers magnificent sports and recreation facilities.

The Albany Campus is quickly developing a vibrant student life, with regular social activities organized by the Albany Student Association, and many other events organized by international and cultural clubs and individual colleges.

Palmerston North Campus

Massey University's original home base - Palmerston North is New Zealand's premiere and largest institution for the life sciences, agricultural, horticultural and veterinary teaching and research and is a leader in industrial innovation through areas such as food science and technology, biotechnology, advanced material sciences and product development. Palmerston North campus locations are renowned for their picturesque natural garden and lagoon settings.

Wellington Campus

Massey University at Wellington is known as the creative campus, located in the heart of the bustling city of Wellington. Over the past few years the campus has established itself as a center of excellence for study and research.  The study and research program focuses on four broad areas: Communication and Business; Engineering and Technology; Health and Well-being; and Creative Arts. The Wellington campus is also the home of New Zealand's oldest and most distinguished School of Design, established in 1886.

Massey University and Victoria University of Wellington have collaborated to create the New Zealand School of Music (NZSM), the pre-eminent provider of music education programs in New Zealand. Until the NZSM is re-located on its own site, Wellington NZSM students will be located on either the Massey Wellington or the Victoria University campuses, depending on program of study.
