Schools, Centres and Institutes

The Wellington Faculty of Engineering supports the research and teaching work of two schools and two research centres.

The Faculty includes the School of Engineering and Computer Science, the School of Mathematics and Statistics, the Centre for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, the Robinson Research Institute, and the Computational Media Innovation Centre. We also work closely with the University’s Industry Alliance Programme.
