AUT School of Future Environments

The School of Future Environments - Huri te Ao brings together architecture, built environment engineering, and creative technologies. We explore systems change and innovation, embracing a holistic, trans-disciplinary approach to taking on urgent global challenges, while recognising indigenous values in teaching, learning and research. We are committed to creating a transformative learning experience centred on students. Huri te Ao aims to foster a strong sense of whanaungatanga (belonging) and manaakitanga (the spirit of generosity, care, mutual respect, and openness to others) amongst students, staff and external partners.
