Why study at the Malaghan

Postgraduate students who study with us are sought after internationally and have gone on to work at leading research institutes including the Trudeau Institute and National Institutes of Health in the United States, the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland and the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre in Australia.

The Malaghan Institute has a long-standing affiliation with New Zealand universities and we are considered one of the leading organisations for a PhD in Immunology.

While studying here, students are supported to attend international conferences and visit collaborators' laboratories overseas to keep abreast of the latest developments in their research field.
