Study Business
in Melbourne
Melbourne, with its temperate climate in Victoria and a
population in excess of 3.5 million, is regarded by thousands
of overseas students already here as a valued location for
study - and a rewarding life experience.
Melbourne is one of the great multicultural cities of the
world, and can now call itself the new home of people from
throughout the world. The city enjoys a vibrant cultural,
social and sporting life, and Victorian universities presently
host many thousands of overseas students.
The Australian universities located in Melbourne have courses
that cover a full range of disciplines, easily the equal of
any found in the universities of Europe or the American and
Asian nations. Melbourne has a particularly strong group of
universities within the Business and Commerce disciplines
- many often combine their degrees with Law, Engineering,
Computing, Arts and the Sciences. All Melbourne's universities
have comprehensive programs ranging from undergraduate degrees
to PhD programs and post-doctoral opportunities.
Melbourne is regarded as a prime destination for tourists
from all parts of the world. The courses presented reflect
this important industry, with undergraduate and graduate programs
in tourism, hospitality, marketing and local management available
at Victoria University, which is particularly noted for its
innovative programs in many specialty fields.
Students studying business and commerce in Melbourne find
graduate and undergraduate programs in accounting, finance,
risk management, insurance, banking, tourism, hospitality,
marketing, business computing, management, economics, logistics,
agribusiness, entrepreneurship, small business, commerce,
law and legal studies, actuarial studies, and many related
and sometimes specialised fields.
As well as these courses, all Melbourne universities offer
MBA programs, and some -including RMIT and Victoria University
- have introduced a Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA),
which is usually a research degree combining course work (one
year) and thesis (two years) at Victoria University, for example.
Universities in Melbourne are innovative and progressive,
and are increasingly supporting student learning with extensive
course materials available in electronic format. However,
primary learning still centers upon lectures and small group
tutorials and seminars.
Australia, and Melbourne in particular, is a fine destination
for new life experiences, and you will be made most welcome
as a visitor and student.
