Besides Swinburne, the neighbourhood is home to Melbourne’s best private schools, including Scotch College, Strathcona Girls School, Methodist Ladies College and Xavier College.

Studying at Swinburne means studying in one of the world’s most well-regarded cities, famous for its quality of life. Melbourne has been named Australia’s top student city - and third best in the world by the 2019 QS Best Student Cities Ranking. And when you get to know Melbourne, it’s easy to see why.

Home to four million people, Melbourne is a thoroughly international city, a veritable melting pot, with an enviable array of food, culture, scenery, and sport to be enjoyed. It’s a smart city of hidden treasures, secret laneways and rooftops, which reveals itself to you slowly, before you become old friends.

SEE NATIVE AUSTRALIAN ANIMALS

Leave the city for Healesville Sanctuary and get face-to-face with kangaroos, wombats and more. Or drive to Phillip Island to cuddle koalas or watch fairy penguins make their way home as the sun sets.

EAT YOUR WAY AROUND THE WORLD

Melbourne loves food, and you’ll love the food in Melbourne. From authentic French croissants in Fitzroy, to delightful dumplings in Chinatown, Melbourne has restaurants and cafés specialising in food from around the world. Melbourne is a culinary whirlwind that’ll sweep you off your feet and fill up your belly.

ENJOY THE COFFEE CULTURE

Melbourne’s coffee credentials are recognised and revered all around the world. Coffee culture is as much a part of Melbourne as footy or trams. In every suburb, you’ll find world-class coffee shops serving up some of the best beans around. Close to our Hawthorn campus, you’ll find Axil Coffee who brew one of the finest cups in the city.

TOP THINGS TO DO

EXPLORE VICTORIA

Victoria is ripe for exploration, with so many things to see and do. Head for the Great Ocean Road and see the world-famous Twelve Apostles. Check out Philip Island, home to the famous Penguin Parade. See Wilsons Promontory National Park, famous for its stunning beaches and unspoilt beauty. Sip on award-winning wine in one of Yarra Valley’s many wineries, or, when winter comes, go skiing in the High Country’s snowfields.

LANEWAYS, ARCADES AND STREET ART

Between Melbourne CBD’s sprawling thoroughfares, you’ll come across many unassuming laneways. Step into one, and you might stumble across unexpected surprises, from hidden bars and restaurants, to boutiques and world-class street art. Melbourne is also famous for its European-inspired arcades where you’ll find everything from beautiful barbershops, to chocolatiers, and more. Go forth and explore.

GO TO A RICHMOND FOOTY GAME

Australian Rules Football is an inseparable part of life in Melbourne. It so happens that Swinburne is partnered with Richmond Football Club, the 2017 premiership winners!

Once you’ve been to a game, you can proudly call yourself a local.
