The Universal College of Learning (Te Pūkenga – UCOL) is a public institute of technology headquartered in Palmerston North, New Zealand, historically an independent regional polytechnic that became a subsidiary of Te Pūkenga in 2020, with governance evolving under the post-2025 restructuring toward greater institutional autonomy. It offers certificates, diplomas, and degrees across health, business, engineering, and creative arts from campuses in Palmerston North, Whanganui, and Wairarapa. UCOL has maintained a moderate international student population. It serves the lower North Island region as a key vocational education provider. Current governance status should be verified against the latest Tertiary Education Commission updates.
