The Southern Institute of Technology (SIT) is a public tertiary education institution in New Zealand. It is government-funded and operates under the Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics (ITP) sector, providing vocational and degree-level education.
SIT is known for its ‘Zero Fees Scheme,’ which significantly reduces tuition costs for domestic students. While it receives public funding, it functions with a degree of autonomy, similar to other ITPs in New Zealand. Its campuses are primarily located in Invercargill, with additional sites in Queenstown, Christchurch, and Auckland.
