- W2242808765 abstract "The University of Auckland, School of Engineering has struggled historically to attract students of Maori ethnicity. Even so, Auckland has out-performed other New Zealand engineering schools in this regard. In 2002, the Faculty of Engineering adopted the Maori Participation Strategy, formalising the initiatives that had been established since 1998. The mission statement expresses the desire to have a student cohort that represents the community at large, however in the case of Maori recruitment the strategy is driven by obligations under the Treaty of Waitangi as well as identified need. Analysis of under-representation statistics shows that of the groups identified for affirmative action, the Maori recruitment challenge is three-fold worse that of any other. This scale of under-representation requires a step change in recruitment numbers that can only be achieved by a targeted programme. Nga hoa o te kupenga rorohiko seeks to increase the cohort of students completing secondary school with maths and physics achievement at higher levels. The programme seeks to extend a successful internal initiative called tuakana-teina. The tuakana-teina concept establishes relationships between senior and junior engineering students to facilitate mentoring and tutoring of junior students (teina) who eventually reciprocate by adopting the roles of tuakana. The extension of this concept into secondary schools on a regular basis is possible with on-line and mobile communications technologies. The mentoring concept is also extended into the engineering profession as sponsor firms provide a mentoring engineer in addition to a scholarship for the engineering student mentor. The mentoring relationships are further supplemented with the creation of mentoring cohorts that cluster students from different schools. This approach provides additional peer support opportunities that create a safety net that can absorb participant attrition from the programme if this should occur." @default.
