Do good teachers make a difference?
Quality teachers can often mean the difference between a good student and a great student. Add to that a great learning environment and it's easy to see why Swinburne is recognised for the quality of its teaching.
The best university in Melbourne for teaching quality and graduate satisfaction (Good Universities Guide 2010).
Ranked in the world's top 500 universities by the Times Higher Education.
Is there more to Melbourne than university?
Melbourne has more to offer than a great education. It's one of the world's most livable cities (Economist, 2009) and is considered Australia's cultural capital.
It is renowned for its architecture, parks and gardens, elegant landscapes and diverse multicultural communities.
Home to 3.8million people, Melbourne boasts a mild climate, affordable living costs and an extensive public transport system which includes trains, trams and buses.
Swinburne's two main campuses in Hawthorn and Prahran are about 10-15 minutes from Melbourne's city centre.
