Join us for AUT’s Research Week - Te Wiki Rangahau 2024 from 9 to 13 September, focusing on partnerships for impact. As New Zealand’s only university of technology, AUT conducts research that has real-world, practical impacts. To achieve those impacts, we often partner with collaborators in industry, not-for-profits, local iwi, government and community groups.
We welcome our external research partners and collaborators to join AUT staff and research students for Research Week 2024; a week of presentations, conversations and connections.

At AUT’s inaugural Research Week from 4 to 8 September 2023 we enjoyed 33 events featuring 240 presenters speaking about AUT's research. Here are some highlights:
The AI + Communication Symposium stimulated discussions and debate over the place of artificial intelligence in creative industries and media, exploring opportunities and challenges.
Dr Ayesha Scott and Professor Aaron Gilbert of the AUT Business School launched their Youth+Debt Report, detailing how ‘buy now, pay later’ schemes affect young people’s financial wellbeing.
AUT research is focused on real-world impact, and we're known as a leading research university with innovative research that addresses issues facing the environment, society and the world.
Watch AUT experts discuss the issues New Zealanders are talking about and the topics that matter to you in this series of on demand videos.
