Monash University
Established in Melbourne in 1958, Monash is one of Australia`s finest universities. An energetic and dynamic institution, Monash University is recognised around the world for the quality and impact of its education and research. Australia`s most international university, Monash operates a network of eight campuses including one in Malaysia and one in South Africa, plus a centre in Prato, Italy and a research training academy in Mumbai, India. Together with a global network of research partnerships, international education programs and alumni, these links afford Monash University a unique capacity to work with communities around the world to deliver education and research that addresses the great challenges of our times.
Monash University seeks to improve the human condition by advancing knowledge and fostering creativity. It does so through research and education and a commitment to social justice, human rights and a sustainable environment. Monash University is a new type of university for a new century, delivering research outcomes that change people`s lives. Monash University is unconstrained by tradition, making us well placed to deliver bold new solutions for some of the most urgent challenges our world faces in sustainability, health and wellbeing, productivity and new industries, social inclusion and global citizenship. Monash University recognises that these challenges cannot be properly addressed if we shelter within our own borders. The University community is thus committed to creating new ideas and realising solutions by drawing upon knowledge, perspectives and experiences from around the world. Our international presence encompassing campuses and centres in Australia, Africa, Asia and Europe means that Monash researchers, teacher and students are able to draw on perspectives and resources most other universities cannot match. Monash University is an engaged and outward-facing institution, and our graduates exhibit the same qualities.
