The Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga Māori (NPM) Futures Programme supports promising Māori students as a means to growing an expert and capable Māori researcher workforce for Aotearoa New Zealand. Some of our earlier interns have pursued doctoral and post-doctoral studies; found academic or professional research roles in organisations like universities, research institutions or consultancies.
The New Horizons internship programme is for Māori students interested in pursuing a career in research. The award will provide assistance to Māori students enrolled at a NPM tertiary education partner entity to gain research experience and enhance their research skills.
Tauira in legal studies may be eligible for the Borrin Legal Summer Internship award, which supports Māori students with a strong interest in law, justice, and social equity to develop advanced research skills under the guidance of an expert Māori legal researcher.
The students will
- work under the supervision and guidance of a NPM Māori researcher based at any NPM partner entity.
- Complete research activities that align to the NPM Matakitenga research programme and contribute to NPM mission and objectives.
- Participate in the online NPM Māori Futures support programme during the tenure of their award.
