Universities New Zealand announced three New Zealand university graduates who were awarded the prestigious Rhodes Scholarships to carry out post-graduate study at the University of Oxford, England.

The Rhodes Scholarship provides life-changing opportunities for exceptional all-round students to carry out postgraduate study at the University of Oxford.

The 2019 Rhodes Scholars elect are Mattea Mrkusic, Johann Go and James Ranstead.

These future leaders all have a compassion for others, humanity and the environment in common. They hope to contribute something significant to their communities when they return to New Zealand after their studies.

TEC congratulates these students. This is an outstanding achievement, and demonstrates and contributes to TEC’s higher learner outcomes of graduates contributing to the knowledge economy, quality research, and international knowledge exchange.
