The Southern Institute of Technology (SIT), now part of Te Pūkenga, does not currently hold a ranking in major global university ranking systems like QS World University Rankings or Times Higher Education. As a vocational and technical education provider in New Zealand, SIT focuses on practical, industry-aligned training rather than research-intensive academic programs, which are typically evaluated in international rankings.
However, SIT is well-regarded nationally for its high student satisfaction rates, affordable education, and strong industry connections. Its integration into Te Pūkenga, New Zealand’s unified vocational education network, further enhances its regional reputation and educational offerings.
