The Melbourne Model

Degrees at the University of Melbourne work differently to those at most other Australian universities.

This allows students to explore their own study path, with the power to choose their own direction and explore new options along the way.&nbsp;

Parkville Campus

The University's main campus in Parkville is just a short tram ride from the bustling Melbourne CBD. Located in leafy Victorian streets, it provides a picturesque backdrop for leading Australian study and research.

<h4>Applying for postgraduate study</h4>

Graduate programs normally require the satisfactory completion of an undergraduate degree either from the University of Melbourne, a university in another country or another Australian institution. Applicants must also meet the English language requirements of the University to be eligible to be offered a place.
