Abstract

A number of New Zealand universities offer astronomy courses at different undergraduate levels. The courses are taught in Physics or Mathematics Departments. Some are only sub-courses within a physics major rather than a dedicated astronomy course. I will detail these and show material relating to the course content and some of the texts used. Postgraduate programs in astronomy are also offered, principally at the University of Canterbury but also at the University of Auckland and Victoria University of Wellington.
