Auckland University of Technology (AUT)
Founded in 1895 as Auckland Technical School, by 1989 it was operating as Auckland Institute of Technology Te Whare Takiura o Tāmaki Makau Rau (AIT). Certified as a full university in 2000, the institution's name became Auckland University of Technology Te Wānanga Aronui o Tāmaki Makaurau (AUT).
In 2019 AUT "established [the] Art on Campus Advisory Group, comprised of a group of experts, [who] will shape and direct the University's art collection." Across the institution's three campuses over 400 art works are on display, many on loan from the Wallace Arts Trust.
Quoted from AUT News: A new direction for art on campus.
