OUR VALUE PROPOSITION TO OUR STUDENTS AND THE COMMUNITYVictoria University (VU) aims to be a great university of the 21st century by being inclusive rather than exclusive. We will provide exceptional value to our diverse community of students by guiding them to achieve their career aspirations through personalised, flexible, well-supported and industry relevant learning opportunities. Achievement will be demonstrated by our students’ and graduates’ employability and entrepreneurship.

The applied and translational research conducted by our staff and students will enhance social and economic outcomes in our heartland communities of the West of Melbourne and beyond. Our graduates as employees and citizens will shape the industries in which they work and communities where they live. Healthier, smarter and more sustainable communities will result.

A MESSAGE FROM THE CHANCELLORAs Chancellor of Victoria University, I am privileged to preside at Graduations and to witness the enormous pride that our graduates take in their achievements. It is a pride that is shared by your family and friends, and by all VU staff and Council members. Your success in completing your course of study is our greatest reward.

As your graduation day is a significant milestone, it is important to me and the entire University community that each ceremony highlights the rich and genuine diversity of our University. We work hard to ensure that our ceremonies are friendly, inviting and engaging and that we honour the celebratory nature of the occasion. It is how we do things here at VU, and those outside the VU community who attend our ceremonies never fail to comment on what an uplifting experience it is.

During your time with us, we have equipped you with the knowledge and skills you need to thrive in the modern world. You now have the tools to learn, to adapt, to be flexible, to be resilient and to succeed. You have shown an ability to set goals and achieve them. Throughout your study we have strived to give you an education which includes an understanding of the real world of work and an appreciation of the society in which we live. We are now sending you into the world to make a difference.

As a University we seek not only to provide you with a first class education but it is important to us that we strengthen the communities from which you come, and in many cases, to which you will return. Through you, and through the impact of our research on real world issues, we are improving our community, both locally and globally.

To each of our graduates – I urge you to enjoy your graduation day. Reflect on all that you have accomplished so far and on the many experiences still to come. Take a moment to think about what your time at VU has meant to you.

Please stay connected through our extensive Alumni network. You are always a member of our community and, as with all our students you will always be important to us.

Congratulations and very best wishes for an exciting and successful future.

Ms Gaye Hamilton

Chancellor

I would also like to extend a warm welcome to your family and friends who are sharing this special day with you.

In graduating from VU you are now alumni of a modern university which is among the world’s best. While we remain the only tertiary institution based in the west of Melbourne, we also have a growing international reputation.

This recognition for your university enhances the value of the qualification you have worked so hard to earn. It will assist you as you forge ahead with your career both here and abroad and enable you to say with pride that you are a graduate of Victoria University.

I join the Chancellor in encouraging you to remain connected to the University as part of our ever-growing Alumni community and I look forward to hearing more from you as you embrace your chance to join them as valued ambassadors of our institution.

Your award is an opportunity for you to make a real impact in the world locally, nationally and globally. I ask that you take the skills and knowledge you have gained here at VU and use them as the first vital step in your lifelong learning journey.

Congratulations on reaching this exciting milestone.

Congratulations! You have achieved an important milestone.

You have succeeded in your tertiary studies and we are delighted to send you into the world – or welcome you back for further study. You are now part of the VU family.

Today’s Victoria University is a direct descendant of Footscray Technical School, which first opened its doors to students in February 1916. The school, with the support of the local community, took up the challenge to offer educational opportunities to the diverse population of Melbourne’s West. We remain committed to that goal and we are now one of the longest-standing providers of education in Victoria.

The School adopted the image of the Door of Opportunity as a means of expressing to the entire community the school’s purpose and reason for existence. Victoria University remains committed to that spirit and tradition as we embark on our next 100 years.

As the University of Opportunity and Success, we play a role in helping students from diverse backgrounds find success, and in the process we strive to be a distinctive University of the 21st century.

For a quarter of century we have also been providing exceptional educational opportunities for international students. In Melbourne, nearly 20% of our total student population are international students from over 80 countries. Offshore, through high-quality partnerships, VU enrols nearly 4,500 students per year in English, diploma, degree and master courses in China, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam and Sri Lanka.

VU is especially proud of our international alumni as they provide marvellous contributions to their employers, families and communities all over the world.

We have grown into one of Australia’s biggest and best universities, with over 42,000 enrolled students and just under 2000 staff. Victoria University is ranked in the top 2% of universities worldwide, in the prestigious Times Higher Education World Rankings.

We have campuses in Melbourne’s CBD, and spread across Melbourne’s western region, and a Sydney campus that offers courses to international students.

The University encompasses:

u seven teaching colleges

u Victoria Polytechnic, VU’s vocational training provider, and

u Two research institutes in our flagship areas of Sport, Health and Active Living and Sustainable Industries and Liveable Cities.

100 YEARS OF OPPORTUNITY AND SUCCESS

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

THE UNIVERSITY MACE – AN ESTABLISHED TRADITION

Victoria University acknowledge the Ancestors, Elders and families of the Boonwurrung and Woiwurrung of the Kulin who are the traditional owners of University land. As we share our own knowledge practices within the University may we pay respect to the deep knowledge embedded within the Aboriginal community and their ownership of Country. We acknowledge that the land on which we meet is a place of age old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal and that the Kulin people’s living culture has a unique role in the life of this region.

Our graduation ceremonies begin with the entrance of the University mace, signifying the authority of the Chancellor. Carried by the Mace Bearer, the mace symbolises learning, scholarship and our rich history. The mace connects us with those who have come before and those who will follow in the pursuit of learning. Made of sterling silver and 24-carat gold, the design includes the letter ‘V’, standing for Victoria – our University’s home and namesake.
