Studying in Melbourne
Melbourne
The University of Melbourne was established shortly after the founding of Melbourne and is located just a few minutes from the centre of the city. Melbourne is an exciting and vibrant hub of cultural, social, sporting and business life. It has consistently been voted one of the world's most liveable cities and is deemed a 'safe community' by the World Health Organization. The University is proud to have been a driving force in the development of this dynamic city, and we invite you to be part of this thriving community during your studies with us.
