Invercargill Campus

Image

Invercargill is where the Southern Institute of Technology started and where the innovative SIT Zero Fees Scheme was born.

Since 1971 we have taught majority of our programmes here between our three centrally located campuses (Main Campus, Downtown Campus & SIT Sound).

Many of our Students move to Invercargill to study and take advantage of the Zero Fees Scheme and Southland's lower living costs.
