University of Otago science communication students have spoken out against cuts to the department many of them have travelled from overseas to attend.
The university - which is seeking to cut staff and courses in a push to save $60 million - said it was finalising a proposal for changes to the 60-student department, and students would be asked for feedback later this month.
Students teamed up to create a video opposing the cuts - a real-world example of the skills they had been taught.
They sent their video to the university council, which did not respond, and to sciences pro-vice-chancellor Prof Richard Barker, who said they would be consulted on any proposed changes.
They had received no further news.
