University of Otago

The University of Otago is New Zealand’s first university and a vibrant international centre of learning. It was established in 1869 by Scottish settlers with a strong conviction in the transforming power of education. Today the University has about 20,000 students, from all over New Zealand and from nearly 100 countries around the world. Otago has many distinctive features. It is New Zealand’s most research-intensive university, and the highest ranked for the quality of its research. Otago academics have won the largest share of the prestigious Marsden Fund for five years in a row. In contrast to many other distinguished research universities, however, we also put a great emphasis on the quality of undergraduate teaching. Even first year students have the opportunity to be taught by academics who are world leaders in their field.

Every graduate of elite nyc jewish high school avoids columbia for first time in decades.

None of this year’s graduates of an elite Upper East Side Jewish high school will be attending Columbia University’s premier liberal arts college for the first time in decades at least partly because of antisemitism.

“For the first time in over 20 years, we will not have a Ramaz graduate enrolling in Columbia College,” Ramaz said in a statement Sunday to The Post.

One Ramaz student enrolled at Columbia’s school of General Studies, and three students enrolled in Columbia-affiliated Barnard College for women — but none at the college, it said. Ramaz indicated that anti-Israel protests and hostility toward Jewish students at Columbia during the previous semester had a factor in its graduates not attending Columbia College.

“Ramaz provides as much information as possible about the situation at various colleges of interest, and we have given priority to issues surrounding the horrific rise in antisemitic instances at some schools, so that our students and their families are able to make informed decisions about which colleges are right for them,” a Ramaz rep said in an e-mail.

Rory Lancman , a top Jewish civil-rights activist whose two daughters graduated from Ramaz and who is a Columbia Law School graduate, said he would not recommend Jewish students to apply or attend Columbia at the moment because of Jew-bashing.

“Jewish families are voting with their feet and choosing colleges and universities that take antisemitism seriously,” said Lancman, a former Queens city councilman and the current director of corporate initiatives and senior counsel at the Louis Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law.

“I would not recommend my daughters to apply to Columbia or other colleges that aren’t committed to protect them as Jews,” he said.

Columbia declined comment to The Post on Sunday.

The Ivy League school in Morningside Heights is still grappling with turmoil that has rocked the institution to its core.  

Embattled Columbia President Minouche Shafik resigned last week and is heading back to England after leading the elite institution for the past year, which was marked by constant — and sometimes destructive — anti-Israel protests.

Shafik’s resignation comes just one week after  three university deans also resigned from Columbia  following the exposure of their “very troubling” text chain that disparaged Israeli and Jewish students’ fears of rising antisemitism on campus.

A huge mob of masked pro-terror rioters broke into a Columbia academic building and seized it in April, draping it with a giant flag calling for “intifada.”

One  shocking video  captured a hammer-wielding demonstrator smashing through a glass-paneled door and placing what appeared to be a bike lock around its handles.

Hundreds of students were arrested on trespassing charges for refusing to pack up a campus encampment, triggering the building takeover. But many of the vandals, rioters and trespassers afterward escaped criminal charges .

The protests and anti-Israel vitriol was fueled by Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, invasion of Israel, where the terror insurgents slaughtered 1,200 people in the Jewish state and triggered the ongoing war in Gaza.

Harvard and graduate students settle sexual harassment lawsuit

• Copy Link copied

BOSTON (AP) — Harvard University and three graduate students have settled a federal lawsuit accusing the Ivy League school of ignoring complaints of sexual harassment by a renowned professor and allowing him to intimidate students by threatening to hinder their careers.

The suit filed in Boston in 2022 was dismissed without court costs and with prejudice, according to an order by federal Magistrate Judge Judith Dein dated Thursday, meaning the students can’t re-litigate the claims.

Terms of the settlement were not made public.

The students’ lawyers praised their clients’ courage “in coming forward, speaking up about their experiences and shedding light on important issues.”

“We are glad that our clients will now be able to move on with their lives and careers,” the statement from Sanford Heisler Sharp said.

The lawsuit alleged that one of the students was subjected to repeated forcible kissing and groping as early as 2017 by John Comaroff, a professor of anthropology and African and African American studies. And when the student met with him to discuss her plans to study in an African country, Comaroff repeatedly said she could be subjected to violence in Africa because she was in a same-sex relationship, the lawsuit said.

The other two plaintiffs said Comaroff threatened to derail their careers after they reported his behavior to university administrators. One accused him of giving her unwanted sexual attention when she was an undergraduate at the University of Chicago.

Comaroff, 79, was not named as a defendant, and his lawyers said at the time that he “categorically denies ever harassing or retaliating against any student.” He “consistently made every effort to assist these students and to advance their careers,” their statement said.

As for the discussion about the dangers of possible violence in the African country, he said his advice was appropriate, motivated by concern for her safety if she traveled with a same-sex partner — a warning similar to what’s published by the U.S. State Department.

Comaroff said in a July statement announcing his retirement from Harvard that the lawsuit “repeated all of the allegations already found to lack merit” during a Harvard investigation, but “in more lurid, hyperbolic terms” to make him a scapegoat in their fight against the university.

“All this extraordinary attention, all the furor, all the nastiness, arose out of two brief office-hour discussions, both academic in intent and content,” Comaroff wrote. “An ugly, ferocious campaign had been waged against me at Harvard by a small group of activists, people who have no knowledge of me, of my pedagogy, or of the facts of the case as established by Harvard’s thorough, largely exonerating investigation.”

At the time the lawsuit was filed in 2022, a Harvard spokesperson shared a letter saying Comaroff was put on administrative leave for the rest of that spring semester after university investigators found his verbal conduct violated the school’s sexual, gender-based and professional conduct policies.

Before the lawsuit went to mediation in November, lawyers for Harvard had argued for a dismissal, saying the statute of limitations had expired for some claims and that others lacked merit.

Emails seeking comment on the settlement from attorneys representing Comaroff and the university were not immediately returned Friday.

Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering

The Doctor of Philosophy in Mechanical Engineering prepares students for careers in research and academia. Our collaborative faculty are investigating a diverse range of research areas like additive manufacturing, air quality, cellular biomechanics, computational design, DNA origami, energy conversion and storage, nanoscale manufacturing, soft robotics, transdermal drug delivery, transport phenomena, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.

Interested? Visit our research pages for more information, including faculty areas of expertise and research videos.

• Other Ph.D. programs

I’d like more information.

View the  degree requirements  in the handbook.

Doctor of Philosophy in Mechanical Engineering

Students typically complete the Ph.D. degree requirements in three to five years. Early in the program, students focus on course-work that enhances their knowledge as they prepare to conduct research.

Within one year, students must pass the departmental qualifying exam, an oral exam that tests research skills and knowledge of a core mechanical engineering subject area.

Student research forms the core of the Ph.D. program. Research involves active student-directed inquiry into an engineering problem, culminating in a written thesis and oral defense.

Ph.D. Financial Support

The majority of full-time Ph.D. students accepted through the standard application process receive fellowships that cover full tuition, the technology fee, and a stipend for living expenses for up to five years, as long as sufficient progress is made toward degree completion. These awards are sufficient to cover all expenses for the year (including summers). Students are required to pay for health insurance, the transportation fee, the activity fee, books, and course supplies. Off-campus housing is available within walking distance of campus. At least one year of residency is required for the Ph.D. We offer two ways to enter the Ph.D. program.

Advanced entry Ph.D.

The advanced entry Ph.D. is for students with an M.S. in an engineering discipline or equivalent field.

Direct Ph.D.

The direct Ph.D. is for students entering the program with a B.S. in an engineering discipline or equivalent field.

Verification of qualifications by external parties

Employers and other members of the public can utilise the University's graduate search database to verify whether an individual holds a particular degree or other qualification from the University:

Graduate search database

When searching for the graduate, ensure you enter the graduate's legal name at the time the degree was awarded.

Refer the customer to the graduate search database in the first instance. If this is not suitable, verification can also be completed by Student Records. Emails should be ID -checked and then assigned to Student Administration — Records Management queue.

WES — World Education Services

A WES degree conferral form is completed by Student Records. The form needs to be provided to WES in a sealed envelope that is stamped/signed on the back flap to be valid. Student Records send the sealed/stamped envelope inside another envelope (which isn't stamped). Students are welcome to open the first envelope — the non-tampered sealed envelope is inside.

From Tel Aviv to Moscow, flights typically operate using heavy, super midsize or midsize aircraft:

Heavy jet options for private charters from Tel Aviv to Moscow include the Bombardier Global 6000, Falcon 900 LX and the Gulfstream G650.

At a cruise speed of 564 miles per hour, the Bombardier Global 6000 can fly at altitudes higher than most commercial airliners, with a ceiling of 51,000 feet. The placement of windows on the fuselage maximizes natural light in the cabin, greatly enhancing the interior design aesthetics.

The versatile Falcon 900LX’s spacious cabin provides three separate areas for work and relaxation. The jet can accommodate up to 19 passengers in a compact configuration or up to 8 passengers in a comfortable setting.

Gulfstream’s G650 is one of the fastest jets in Gulfstream’s fleet with a top speed at 92% of the speed of sound. With a range of more than 7,000 miles, the cabin is typically configured to carry up to 19 passengers and has sleeping accommodations for up to 10. The G650 provides passengers with a smooth flight.

Heavy jets typically include a full galley, catering and flight attendant service.

Super Midsize jets  including the Hawker 1000, Gulfstream G280 and the Bombardier Challenger 350 provide a relaxing private flight experience. A spacious cabin design allows passengers to move about, relax or work comfortably during the flight and a flat floor design maximizes legroom.

The Hawker 1000 is selected for its spacious cabin and extended range capabilities. The jet features a range of more than 3,000 nautical miles, allowing for nonstop flights.

The Gulfstream G280 features include a range of 3,600 nautical miles and a cabin pressurized to a lower, more easily breathable altitude. Another popular feature of this jet is the amount of natural light that flows through the cabin from Gulfstream’s signature large oval windows.

The design of the Bombardier Challenger 350 is configured for performance and passenger comfort with a range of 3,200 miles, a wide cabin, flat floor and convenient baggage cargo areas. The aircraft’s sound suppressing design ensures a quiet cabin for maximum productivity in flight.

Super midsize jets typically include a full galley, catering and flight attendant service.

Midsize jet options  include the Cessna Citation XLS+, the Learjet 60XR and the Gulfstream G150.

A member of the high-performing class of midsize jets, the Citation XLS+ can climb to cruise altitude in just under 15 minutes after taking off in just 3,560 feet, one of the shortest takeoff distances of any midsize jet. This takeoff rate represents an advantage for private jet charterers because the Citation XLS+ can operate out of smaller airports closer to the charterer’s arrival and destination points.

The Learjet 60XR offers a perfect combination of performance and comfort. Cabin seating features include dual drop-down armrests, 360° swivel capability for efficient conversations during flight and full recline capability to maximize relaxation.

The Gulfstream G150 is one of the fastest midsize jets available with a maximum speed of 547 mph. Cabin configurations include a club seating layout with two forward-facing seats in the rear of the cabin.

All midsize jets typically seat up to 9 passengers and include digital entertainment, a galley and Wi-Fi for in-flight entertainment.

In conclusion, Moscow is one of the most popular European destinations for private jet charters. A leading global business hub, many business executives traveling to Moscow’s business centers utilize private jets for their efficiency. After spending time in Moscow, leisure travelers come away from their trip with a deep sense of fulfillment from spending time together immersed in the cultural richness of Russia’s past, present and future and the lasting warmth of the people of Moscow who call this capital city home.

A professional charter coordinator will ensure your privately chartered flight to Moscow is flawless, from a spacious cabin with zones configured with ultra-comfortable seating, first-class dining with flight attendant service, digital entertainment options with an intuitive cabin management system and plenty of baggage space that can be conveniently accessed during flight.
