The Bachelor of Maori Innovation (BMINN) was created for the next generation of graduates who want to evolve our nation and future thinking through both Western and indigenous worldviews.

This degree is a great opportunity for those working in the iwi sector to better recognise and help promote Maori aspirations in all developmental sectors for Aotearoa — policy, health, environment, social equity, technology, and more.

The University of Canterbur is a public research university based in Christchurch, New Zealand. It was founded in 1873 as Canterbury College, the first constituent college of the University of New Zealand. It is New Zealand's second-oldest university, after the University of Otago, which was founded four years earlier, in 1869.

Its original campus was in the Christchurch Central City, but in 1961 it became an independent university and began moving out of its original neo-gothic buildings, which were re-purposed as the Christchurch Arts Centre. The move was completed on 1 May 1975[6] and the university now operates its main campus in the Christchurch suburb of Ilam.
