About Frontiers Abroad

Frontiers Abroad is a  life changing experience weaving (raranga) together personal exploration and wellbeing with academic pursuits across the physical and cultural landscapes of New Zealand (Aotearoa) and its communities. Our philosophy is that learning and growth occur when you are well, your mind is open, and you’re having fun!


Frontiers Abroad’s unique programme model seamlessly blends a multi-week field course component and a full semester on campus. There are two Earth and Environment programme options at the University of Canterbury (Geology of New Zealand and New Zealand Earth Systems - Environmental Sciences) with flexibility in tailoring your courses to fit your specific majors and interests. At the University of Auckland, we offer a New Zealand Earth Systems - Environmental Studies programme and introduces indigenous knowledge  to help resolve environmental issues. 


Raranga- Maori weaving is an art form with practical outcomes of building food baskets and rope, but raranga is also used more symbolically for unity and togetherness of people, knowledge, and what binds our Earth.
