"That's really what (living
in New Zealand) has meant.
Talking to people
and seeing things from
their perspective"
 

In New Zealand "undergraduate" study means completing a bachelor's degree

Bachelor's degree

Students complete a prescribed number of units or courses for their degree. In each subject there are usually first-year (stage 1 or 100-level), second-year (stage 2 or 200-level) and third-year (stage 3 or 300-level) courses. Students must complete the requirements for one stage before beginning work on the next.

Students can also do an additional "honours" year upon completion of their degree programmes. Honours is generally the first year of graduate work in the student's field of study.
