Teaching and learning at Media Arts

Research shows that employers value creative employees. Those who communicate well, collaborate, demonstrate independence and initiative, who are already competent in a field, and who can teach themselves new skills. We regularly change and adapt our teaching curriculum to ensure we provide relevant learning experiences that best prepare our students for the next stage in their careers.

• Our classes are practical and project-driven, with plenty of one-on-one attention.
• Students often work collaboratively on projects for real clients.
• The internship modules include 120 hours of work experience.
• Lecturers are skilled researchers, and often incorporate industry guests for talks and workshops.
  
• Ramp Gallery is a contemporary art gallery, situated in the heart of Hamilton, Kirikiririora at the Wintec School of Media Arts. The gallery provides a space for critical thought and dialogue through a curated programme of exhibitions, essays, public programmes, and workshops. We foster safety for cultural, multi-gendered, and divergent ideological worldviews to be explored in an engaged, creative, and thoughtful way. We are committed to consciously encouraging divergent voices and practices in all aspects of the gallery schedule.
