Bridgette Masters-Awatere is a New Zealand Psychology academic. She is currently an Associate Professor at the University of Waikato. Since 2018 she has been the Director of the Community Psychology professional programme[1][2] and in 2021 took on the role of Director of the Māori & Psychology Research Unit in 2021[3] – both of which are situated within Te Kura Whatu Oho Mauri - the School of Psychology [1].
Academic Career[edit]
Prior to joining the University of Waikato, Masters-Awatere worked at other Universities (namely Auckland and Massey via Tairāwhiti Polytechnic) while also maintaining private practice as a registered community psychologist, which she obtained in 2000[1]. Masters-Awatere completed her PhD at the University of Waikato in 2015[1]. Working her way up the ranks at the University of Waikato, Bridgette held a fixed-term position as Assistant Lecturer from 2001 – 2004, before securing a continuing position as Lecturer from 2005 to 2015. In 2016, she was made Senior Lecturer before becoming an Associate Professor in 2021[4].
Masters-Awatere’s expertise is in areas of Indigenous Psychology, and indigenous evaluation.. Her research praxis is on generating information that both utilisation-focused and challenges inequity. Her research is primarily collaborative in nature with her contribution on qualitative approaches and engages Kaupapa Māori methodologies, and includes consideration of a collective experience by engaging whānau, hapū, iwi, alongside agency and community. Examples of her research publications emphasise an ecological approach that includes systems and multilevel analysis [1][5]. Masters-Awatere also teaches evaluation theory and skills through two graduate evaluation papers [1].
