The 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia Report placed us as one of Australia’s only two universities for research that achieved ‘above or well above world standard’ for seven different fields of research in

Biological Sciences.

A$500 millioninto world-class centres for learning and research, including the La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science (LIMS) and the Centre for AgriBioscience (AgriBio).

The wedge-tailed eagle (Aquila audax) is one of the world’s largest. For the Wurundjeri People, traditional owners of the land where our Melbourne Campus is located, the wedge-tailed eagle is known as Bunjil. The eagle gives guidance to those in need.

‘Whenever there’s a fearsome time, or a time of doubt, or you’re not sure of which way to go or what you should do, most times an eagle will feature.’

– Aunty Joy Murphy Wandin, Senior Elder of the Wurundjeri People.

The eagle represents knowledge, wisdom and leadership. You can see one of these majestic animals at Healesville Sanctuary or around the You Yangs in Victoria.

Life in Victoria


About VictoriaHugging the tip of Australia's east coast, Victoria is Australia's second-smallest state, covering 227 600 square kilometres – roughly the size of the British Isles.

A wealth of diverse regions and attractions are packed into this compact area, with sweeping coastlines, pristine beaches and national parks and forests teeming with wildlife, plus wineries, lakes and mountains offering skiing, climbing and hiking. Best of all, many of Victoria's unique and varied landscapes are easily reached as day trips from Melbourne.

Seasons and climateDespite the small size, Victoria's climate varies across the state. The north has much drier and warmer weather than the south. Australia's seasons are the reverse of those in the northern hemisphere. The climate is warm to hot in summer (December to February), mild in autumn (March to May), crisp in winter (June to August), and cool in spring (September to November).

Melbourne Victoria’s capital, Melbourne, sits on the banks of the Yarra River and around the shores of Port Phillip Bay. Melbourne boasts a packed program of festivals and events, Australia’s best and most stylish shopping and a lively passion for eating and drinking. It also supports a flourishing arts scene.

Degraves StreetAnkur Rastogi (India) and Shakun Sharma (Nepal) take time out in Degraves Street, one of Melbourne’s most popular coffee hubs, just a short walk from La Trobe’s City Campus.

Great Ocean RoadTravel the Great Ocean Road and experience one of the world’s most scenic coastal drives. See the towering 12 Apostles, iconic surf breaks, misty waterfalls, native wildlife and seaside villages. A perfect weekend getaway!

Events Melbourne and Victoria host some of Australia’s most prestigious events throughout the year, including the Spring Racing Carnival culminating in the Melbourne Cup in November, the Australian Open Tennis in January, Melbourne Food and Wine Festival and the Formula 1™ Australian Grand Prix in March, Melbourne International Comedy Festival March to April, international jazz, film and writers’ festivals May through September, and Melbourne Festival in October. Victoria also hosts an ever-changing schedule of blockbuster exhibitions from around the world.

HeritageGrand 19th century architecture and elegant gardens, built following the discovery of gold, are a reminder of Victoria’s ‘Gold Rush’ past, while Aboriginal cultural landmarks and landscapes continue to connect Indigenous Australians from South Eastern Australia with a living cultural heritage dating back more than 60 000 years.

The university system explained

UndergraduateThis is the first level of study at university, and usually refers to a three or four-year Bachelor’s degree. This may also include Honours studies, which can take an additional year, plus there are double degrees which usually take at least four years full-time.

PostgraduateA university qualification undertaken after a Bachelor’s degree (e.g. Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma, Postgraduate Diploma, Master’s, Doctorate). Postgraduate qualifications can be completed by coursework or through research (see page 38).

Course structureOur course structure is based on two 13-week semesters each year. Semester 1 usually begins in February and runs until May, while Semester 2 usually begins in July and runs until October. To see the La Trobe Academic Calendar visit: latrobe.edu.au/calendar/ academic-calendar

Most subjects run for one semester, and full-time students usually enrol in four subjects each semester. In most courses, you complete a combination of compulsory (core) subjects, a major, and some electives. In some courses, you only have to complete compulsory (core) subjects.

Studying at university is a unique experience. Here are a few key terms you may come across if you are considering university in Australia.

Assessment and gradingYour assessment will vary depending on the subject you’re taking. It can include things like case studies, group assignments, class presentations and exams. At La Trobe, we use the following grading scheme:

80 – 100%

70 – 79%

60 – 69%

50 – 59%

Less than 50% is a fail

Contact hoursContact hours are the number of hours you’ll need to spend in lectures and tutorials. Depending on what you are studying, contact hours could be between 12 and 30 hours per week. You will also need to spend time on independent reading and research outside of class.

Lectures and tutorialsDuring lectures, your teachers will present information to your entire class. Tutorials and seminars are smaller group sessions that are sometimes led by your teacher, another academic, or another student. Tutorials and seminars are interactive, and are your chance to get more information about lecture material and assignments.

MajorThis is a sequence of subjects that allows you to specialise in an area that particularly interests you. You usually take six to eight major subjects over your whole degree – at least one each semester.

Work placementsWork placements give you industry experience relevant to your studies, and allow you to network with individuals in your chosen industry. During work placements, you usually work under an employer’s supervision. Not all courses offer placements, but for some they’re compulsory. They’re usually assessed as part of your studies.

Tuition feesWhen you study at La Trobe, you’ll need to pay tuition fees. Indicative 2017 annual fees for each of our courses are detailed on pages 52 to 63, and are calculated based on a standard full-time 120 credit point load.

I first enrolled in Biotechnology as it was relevant to my previous studies in agricultural sciences but after one semester I decided to change. My interest in business made me decide to choose accounting. I want to use both my agricultural and accounting knowledge in the real world by starting my own agricultural product business in my home country.

Steven Lucan ColomberaBachelor of Science (Hons) / Master of Nanotechnology Sweden

I wanted to learn as much about science and mathematics as I could, and a double degree was the way to do that. La Trobe lecturers and opportunities to visit facilities like the Australian Synchrotron and Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication are excellent. The subject ‘Issues in Nanotechnology’ was very interesting with guest speakers invited from big companies.


Research at La TrobeAt La Trobe, we aim to be globally recognised for our excellence, creativity and innovation in tackling the big issues of our time. Research excellence is one of our main strengths, and we excel in our chosen areas of research.

What can I research?We’ve identified five Research Focus Areas (RFAs) that address some of the most important questions facing human societies and the environment (see boxes). We offer PhD, Professional Doctorate and Master’s by research programs.

Building healthy communitiesWe focus on research that improves access to high-quality services and tackles challenges such as the ageing population, chronic disease and mental health issues. We have an international reputation for our research on health and wellbeing.

Securing food, water and the environmentUrgent action is required to secure our future on a planet that is facing enormous pressure. We’re using our world-class facilities and expertise in agricultural biotechnology, ecological science and water policy to protect primary producers and resources, while securing our environment for future generations.

Sport, exercise and rehabilitationOur research into human movement and sport science is renowned and we have some of the world’s best researchers in exercise physiology, physiotherapy, nutrition, sports medicine and sport management. We use sport, exercise and rehabilitation to improve overall health, reduce the burden of disease, improve the performance of elite athletes and enable more Australians to live longer and stronger.

Transforming human societiesLa Trobe has a long-standing commitment to understanding national and global problems. Our research confronts social challenges such as human rights, migration, sustainable development, inequality, Indigenous issues and rapid economic and political change and works to create a just and sustainable future.

Understanding diseaseLa Trobe is in a strong position to contribute to the move towards personalised medicine. We develop diagnostic tools for genetic diseases and help understand the origins of acquired diseases such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Our direct links to clinics and clinicians means that our findings can be quickly passed on to the broader community.

Research Education and Development (RED)Our RED team deliver an active range of programs to help you develop your career, communicate and manage your research, secure research funding, build your research writing skills and introduce you to principles of commercialisation and entrepreneurship. The team also runs and supports initiatives that contribute to the dynamic research culture at La Trobe.

How to apply and enquireThe first stage of your application will be to identify a research supervisor. You can start this process online with our enquiry system.

latrobe.edu.au/research/future


The research supervision here is much better than any I have had elsewhere. My supervisor Dr Robert Horvath has been the most amazing support and mentor in this whole process. He is always listening carefully and providing guidance whenever I have encountered trouble.

I spent the whole of 2015 primarily in Kazakhstan and Tajikistan, on a La Trobe-supported fieldwork trip. I really enjoyed being in the field; that has been the best part of my candidature yet. What keeps me motivated is the belief that the knowledge I create now may one day be utilised to facilitate democratic development in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The International Student Services Desk is very supportive. They are always there to listen and work out the best solution for a problem. They let you know that you’re not alone even if you are thousands of miles away from home.

Accommodation

Off-campus accommodationChoose from a range of off-campus accommodation options close to the University.

Share housingSharing a rented house or flat with other people is generally the most economical, flexible and popular form of off-campus accommodation. You can move into an existing shared house, or organise a group to establish a new shared house.

Hostels and rooming housesIf you live in a house or property where there’s one or more rooms available for rent and the total number of people occupying these rooms are four or more, it may be classified as a rooming house. Bedrooms are usually furnished and you can rent your own locked bedroom


La Trobe’s excellent international surroundings, opportunities to develop knowledge and gain experiences, and high quality of education set it apart from other education institutions.

Studying at La Trobe University is not only a platform for me to develop my knowledge and meet people from every corner of the world, but it is enriching my world in such a way that every day when I wake up I feel much better than yesterday. La Trobe helps me to think differently to create a better ‘me’ in making a better ‘world’.

Farhana Afrin MouniMaster of International DevelopmentBangladesh

(single room) or share a bedroom with others (dorm room). You also share common facilities such as the kitchen, laundry, bathroom and living areas. Rooming houses are a good option if you enjoy living in a communal environment.

Private rental vacanciesThis option includes units, flats, houses, self-contained bungalows and apartments. Living in a private rental gives you the opportunity to live independently and be responsible for all aspects of your tenancy. This can be one of the more expensive options as you are solely responsible for meeting costs such as the bond (security deposit), rent in advance, gas, electricity and water, moving expenses and furnishings.

Commercially operated student apartmentsIf you’re interested in living independently in a larger complex, with less pastoral support but with access to common facilities, this may be a good choice. Rooms come fully furnished and you have your own bathroom and kitchen facilities. There are different types of accommodation within apartments, including:

– studio room

– one bedroom

– two bedroom

– twin share (sharing your room with another person).

HomestayIn a homestay arrangement, you live as a guest with the host family in their home. Meals and other support may be provided and your room is usually fully furnished. This can be appealing as it gives you an opportunity to be supported in a family environment.

When I found out that I had received a scholarship from La Trobe University, I felt really happy because it meant I would be studying in Australia. Receiving a scholarship from La Trobe has helped me financially and made me feel that all of the effort I put into my previous studies and work had finally paid off. In that moment, I finally realised I was about to move to Australia and study my Master’s degree at one of the top universities in Australia.
