Celebrating
diversity
Each year, Monash College
welcomes students from
more than 100 countries to
its two Melbourne campuses.
These students arrive in Australia ready
to receive a world-class education while
preparing for future success at Monash
University and beyond.
Their backgrounds may differ but these
students all have two things in common:
a desire to learn and a truly global outlook.
Enter any Monash College classroom
and you will see students from all over
the world working and learning together.
These students are defining the edge
that will set them apart when they enter
the workforce.
They understand that an ability to learn
from and work within different cultures
will continue to play an important role in
future workplaces.
Students are also encouraged to learn
more about each other. The College hosts
a calendar of diversity events designed to
allow students to celebrate events that are
important to them, but also to share these
events with the wider College community.
