wants Māori to give uni a go
One of Auckland University of Technology’s newest professors has a key message for Māori: give university a go.
AUT business professor Dr Ella Henry (Ngāti Kahu ki Whangaroa, Te Rarawa, Ngāti Kurī) was made a full professor this week, a step up from her previous role as an associate professor.
The Māori academic – with background in business, sociology and Māori Indigenous development – has worn many hats over her career, such as work with the Post-Settlement Governance Entity for her iwi, as trustee and chair and as director of Māori Advancement for the AUT Business School.
She says university can transform the lives of learners and their whānau.
