University of Melbourne Review

Tips: Be prepared for cultural shock. Making friends can be hard sometimes. Once you have a circle and good classmates, it gets easy with time. Make the most of your student life, apart from studies lot of opportunities to participate in student unions and events.

Likes (Indian Food): A lot of food options in the city, from India and vegetarian options. The city is filled with cuisines to try and explore. I prefer cooking most so I can spend less and save more. But depends on how good you are at cooking. Also, even if you don’t cook, you can always find spots that are cheap to eat out.

Dislikes (Internships): There are plenty of internships on the university’s career website, and easy to find unpaid opportunities in the city as well via LinkedIn. Sometimes networking helps a lot in getting internships. Connect with your seniors and professors to check in if they have any leads.

Graduate Diploma in Built Environments (Advanced) - Batch of 2026

4.2

Research oriented university with vibrant campus life

Tips: The education system is very different from our country's. Everything is on the computer. My course only had one exam, and the rest were assignments. Yes, I availed myself of a scholarship. I didn't avail myself of it separately. It was automatically provided with my application. There are other scholarships that had to be availed related to the course and electives we are taking.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): One of the biggest draws of studying at the University of Melbourne is how well-structured the post-study pathways are out here. Australia uses a straightforward, points-based immigration system which makes the transition from a UniMelb degree to a post-study work visa feel incredibly clear-cut. The government actively hunts for skilled professionals to fill gaps in major industries, so graduation from a top institution right in the heart of Victoria gives you a massive competitive edge in the local job market. Honesty, the main reason I'd consider making the permanent move is the sheer quality of life and the work-life balance they have out here. Securing permanent residence doesn't just mean a stable career—it unlocks full access to their healthcare system and social services and sets up a direct path to citizenship. Living in a city like Melbourne while building a career under PR is a huge step up.

Dislikes (Internships): In my course, we have one unit dedicated to internships, but it is optional, and we only have to find it. There are industry nights that are conducted by student societies (Urban Collective in my case), but they happen once a year only. There are internships available, but they are very hard to get.

Master of Social Work - Batch of 2025

3.5

A breakthrough institution.

Tips: Definitely a lot of cultural change. I do feel there is an underlying racism in Australia although I didn't quite see that commonly translated in my University thankfully. I applied for several scholarships, which covered a significant portion of my tuition fees. Some scholarships are also available once students start the course as they are determined by academic merit.

Likes (Post study jobs): For social work, there are several companies willing to offer jobs that enable students to comfortably apply for a temporary graduate visa which can also be applied for without having a job. In social work, jobs are clinical and non-clinical in nature. Salary packaging starts from 70000.

Dislikes (Value for money): I thought the tuition fees were a bit exorbitant compared to the QS/World ranking of my department/University. I do feel the academic rigour could also be slightly more, as the subjects were more descriptive than practical. There was a lot of spoonfeeding in terms of how to do assignments which followed rigid criteria instead of allowing some room for creativity.

Master of Data Science - Batch of 2025

3.9

The university doesn't offer dedicated placement offers.

Tips: I personally haven't received any scholarship throughout my degree. People who are planning to join the university, especially for the Data Science course should make sure their math and statistics foundation is pretty good because students have to take at least 2 statistics subjects each semester.

Likes (Safety): Me and my friends haven't come across any trouble during our time at the university. The university has well-equipped facilities to ensure the students are safe in and out of the campus, they have dedicated lines for harassment, racism, and other safety issues. I personally haven't experienced any bad situations during my time in Melbourne for about 2 years.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): The university doesn't offer dedicated placement offers, it is best recommended for students to start looking out for jobs at the start of their final year. There are quite a few companies that offer a sponsor visa and it is hard for international students. People can get into roles like Data & AI consultant, Data Scientist, ML engineer, GenAI engineer, and Data analyst. Freshers can expect 70,000-80,000 as a starting salary.

Master of Environmental Science - Batch of 2025

4.6

Multicultural and respectful community.

Tips: I think all the classes happen in a more practical way than theory and that's the most amazing part about it! There is not much exam pressure! There are easy subjects and sometimes putting in the best effort helps and it's very multicultural. Too good.

Likes (Post study jobs): I think all the universities here have a good amount of career fairs that help students get jobs. They have good connections and world class facilities that help in overall development. I think it also means you have to put in your effort in searching for opportunities by doing volunteering or unpaid internships as they count as very important experience.

Dislikes (Student Life): The socialising is amazing, but sometimes after the class there are not many class events. If they could have more involved sessions, it would be great! I think finding your community could take time but it gets easier when you join clubs and chapters and part time jobs.
