Community Connections
At the University of Waikato/Te Whare Wānanga o Waikato our motto is 'Ko Te Tangata', which means 'For the People'. This reflects our philosophy that we are in, of, and for the community. We sit at the heart of a community of strong regional partnerships and take pride in the extent to which we reflect and serve the strengths and interests of our region. We honour our special connections with Tainui as mana whenua, and we are committed to the iwi forum of Te Rōpū Manukura as a partner of the University.
