About Company

Monash University was established in Melbourne, Australia in 1958. We are a youthful organisation, enthusiastic, optimistic and accessible. We believe quality education and research can change the world for the better. At Monash, the desire to make a difference informs everything we do. But we go beyond good intentions. We make an impact, both locally and internationally. We are a global university with a presence on four continents. And our plans for the future are ambitious.

Making a difference takes energy and idealism as well as experience and wisdom. As a young university, our outlook is progressive and optimistic. We aren\'t mired in cynicism, tradition or convention. We attract the best scholars, but we\'re not elitist. We open our doors to anyone who is prepared to work hard to make a difference. We have seen the good achieved by Monash people in areas like green chemistry, sustainability, and accident and trauma. We are encouraged by their successes and the role we have played in them.

We have five local campuses throughout Victoria, two international locations in Malaysia and in South Africa, and centres in the People\'s Republic of China, Italy and India. Each provides an environment that identifies and nurtures talent – and turns that talent into ability. We believe the best way to help our people meet the challenges they face is to provide a supportive environment. We champion and support our students so they have a memorable university experience. It\'s a friendly university – no matter which campus you attend.

Our motto Ancora Imparo (\"I am still learning\") reminds us that the search for knowledge never ends. We are fired with a restless ambition that pushes us to do things better, to set new benchmarks and to break new ground. In order for our students and staff to positively impact their communities and the world, we must equip them and inspire them – so they can be agents of change.
