At post-graduate level, two universities teach New Zealand archaeology:

Conservation

To become a conservator you need to have a tertiary qualification in conservation studies. Employers increasingly prefer candidates to have a Master of Arts in conservation studies. This degree is currently only available overseas, in countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom and Canada.

The nearest university offering a relevant Master of Arts is the University of Melbourne, Australia. An undergraduate degree in subjects such as cultural heritage studies, archaeology, anthropology, organic chemistry, science, art history, or fine arts is needed to enter postgraduate training (taken from the Careers Services web page for Museum Conservator)].
