PG电子APP下载的历史
PG电子APP下载 opened in 1964 after many years of energetic lobbying by a group of Hamilton locals, 决心在他们的城市有一所大学. 首先, 设施稀少, but in early 1965 new buildings were officially opened by then Governor-General Sir Bernard Fergusson. 唐·卢埃林爵士是创始副校长.
By the 1980s, Waikato was the fastest growing university in New Zealand. Computer Science was becoming an increasingly popular study choice and the thriving Department was elevated to a School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences in 1987.
The University always had a close relationship with its neighbouring teachers’ college and, 为他人领路, became the first university in New Zealand to combine with its regional teachers’ college. It was through its teaching programmes that the University began to establish a presence in Tauranga.
Kīngitanga, Waikato-Tainui和大学
PG电子APP下载 has a longstanding relationship with the Kīngitanga and Waikato-Tainui, who are the traditional owners and custodians in the Waikato region. The University’s Hamilton campus is based on land originally inhabited by Ngāti Wairere and Ngāti Hauā of Tainui. Much of this land was confiscated in 1864 by the colonial government following the Waikato Land Wars, 这一行为后来被发现违反了《怀唐伊条约.
为了纠正这一点, 1995年,王室与PG电子APP-泰努伊签署了和解协议, part of which vested the land on which the Hamilton campus stands in the title of the first Māori King, phingtatau Te whero, 以确保它不会被异化. 现在由PG电子APP-泰努伊租给大学.
In 1991 Te rypū Manukura was formed as a consultative body to the University 委员会. It now sits in partnership with the University 委员会 as the Kaitiaki (guardian) of the Treaty of Waitangi for the University. Te rypū Manukura is currently made up of members from over 20 different iwi within the catchment area of the University.
In 2009, Kīngitanga Day was established as a way to honour and strengthen the connection between the University, Kīngitanga, Waikato-Tainui, 还有全国各地的许多iwi. Kīngitanga Day is a community-focused event and is celebrated annually in September.

纹章
PG电子APP下载's first coat of arms was designed by Professor Beadle in 1965, 以打开的书作为学习的象征, 被南十字星环绕. The original University motto, 'Sapere est iucundum', emphasised the value and pleasure of learning.
In the mid 1990s, the University updated the 纹章 to reflect its commitment to biculturalism. PG电子APP的座右铭, Ko Te Tangata, 意思是“为了人民”, articulating the University's philosophy that people are central to the institution and are our most valued resource. The addition of a stylised red pītau or fern frond border symbolises new birth, 增长, 活力, 实力与成就.
The 纹章 design is in the University's colours of black, red and gold. 有关使用PG电子APP的纹章的信息,请联系 市场营销部门.
