Alumni and partners
We extend a warm invitation to alumni and national and international biosecurity organisations to partner with us.
You might like to consider a
1. short "proof of concept" undergraduate project at no cost to you. Read our Biosecurity brochure for more.
2. partnership with or sponsorship for post graduate research. Some of our biosecurity students are profiled here.
Our current sponsors and partners are:
- Te Tira Whakamātaki TTW (Māori Biosecurity Network)
- other New Zealand universities and
- Crown Research Institutes.
