Monash University typifies a modern Australian university. It's large, with more than 40,000 students. It's international, with campuses on three continents and a lot of international students. And it's comprehensive, with thousands of courses offered in any subject area you can imagine. With two locations in Melbourne you'll also have all the activities that Australia's second largest city offers at your doorstep. A world-class business program, strong programs in Australian and Asian studies, and modern laboratories for students interested in engineering and the sciences are just a few of the academic reasons to consider Monash. A particularly strong department of Communications offers an opportunity to focus on new media as well as virtual cultures and youth media.
Students looking for a more intimate campus setting should consider Monash's Gippsland campus, located over 100 miles from Melbourne. Gippsland offers excellent student support and the campus is highly integrated, offering multiple opportunities for students to meet Australian students both in the on-campus apartments (where Arcadia program students live with local students) and in class. Golf enthusiasts will also be interested to know that Gippsland has its very own golf course!

Before you go, you can contact our program manager for advice on the application process, choosing courses, or simply what you should pack. Once you arrive, our Australia staff will lead an orientation program that will introduce you to the culture, history and politics of Australia as well as preparing you for the academic challenges of studying in a different educational system. During the semester, Arcadia's staff will plan excursions and activities designed to expand your understanding of Australian culture and help you integrate into university life.
