Hello. :) My girlfriend has a question:

"Is it possible to do the units from a Diploma of Liberal Arts (Human Rights) as off campus learning? I am a medical student with rural placements, so therefore can't attend classes at Clayton/Caufield. Looking at the units, they don't seem to be available off campus, including the compulsory ones."

Just to clarify, she is interested in studying the Diploma of Liberal Arts concurrently with her MBBS.

Thanks!

Hi Monash, I was looking at the entry requirements for a PhD in Law, and I read this : A Bachelors degree with honours with a grade of H1 or H2A, or an equivalent qualification considered appropriate by the Monash University Institute of Graduate Research.

What are the requirements / what is the process for doing a PhD after completing a JD?

Thanks :)
Hi zhenzhenzhen, to be eligible for a PhD after completing a JD, you will need to have achieved a minimum 70% average throughout your JD studies.  Also, your JD should include a research component- for example, a 100% graded research paper.  Let us know if you have any further questions about this.

Hey! Just wondering what wam would usually secure a place for a transfer to biomedical science single degree and for a double degree with biomedical science? What would be the minimum? Thanks :)
The minimum WAM required to transfer into a biomedical science single or double degree is 70, however it is suggested you aim as high as possible as selection is made purely based on grades.

Hi Alps,
It’s possible to transfer into our Arts/Law degree from either Monash Arts or Melbourne Arts based on your first year marks.  From either arts degree, you need a minimum Distinction average to be eligible- more details are available here.   Whilst it’s not necessarily easier in terms of marks, starting in a Monash Arts degree will allow you to both familiarise yourself with Monash and also start investigating law, as you could take some law classes in first year Arts using your electives.

Hi Monash!

Just wondering, how are recipients of the Community Leaders Scholarship selected from the pool of AMAs? Or do all AMAs automatically receive the scholarship?

Thanks :)
Hi sparkyblossom!  All students who are selected as an Access Monash Ambassador (AMA) are eligible to be considered for the Monash Community Leaders Scholarship. Only AMAs who meet the academic requirements (WAM of 70 or above for current Monash University students or an ATAR of 90 for commencing students) and citizenship requirements (Australian or New Zealand citizen, holder of an Australian permanent resident or permanent humanitarian visa) and who are enrolled full time on any Australian Monash University campus will be offered a scholarship. Those that do not meet those requirements are still eligible to volunteer with Access Monash. In 2016 we will be offering 300 Community Leaders Scholarships.

Thanks for that. Does this mean that doing a research unit is compulsory to be eligible to do a PhD?

 If so, I see three options listed:
1) LAW5185 Graduate research paper
2) LAW5083 Extended research
3) LAW5084 Minor thesis

Will doing any of these qualify? Thanks!

For grad entry med in 2017 where 50 places are reserves for bio med students, does this also include students doing a double degree of biomed + another degree?
Im planning to do bio med and commerce but not sure if this offer is restricted to students doing a single bio med degree.
Thanks for your time.

Hi wonga, could you provide us with some more information?  Transfer offer dates differ by faculty, and also differ depending on whether or not you’re transferring externally (from another institution) or internally (from one Monash course to another). Just let us know the faculty you want to transfer into, and whether the transfer would be from within, or to, Monash.

Hi zhenzhenzhen, we’ve been advised by Law admissions that the Minor thesis option (LAW5084) is most suitable should you want to pursue your PhD.

Hi Deshouka, as you referenced, from 2017, 50 places in our Graduate Entry Medicine Program will be reserved for our Biomedical Science students.  This includes students who are completing a double degree with Biomed.  For more information, visit this page.

Hi Joseph41, to answer your girlfriend’s question, the Diploma of Liberal Arts is taught in on-campus mode.  Some Arts units are available online, to see a list of these, visit this page.  It seems like she’s already worked this out, however all Arts units begin with ATS.

There are no Human Rights units offered online, however she should enquire with Arts Student Services as to whether there are any online units that can contribute to a Human Rights major (this may be possible when unit content is interdisciplinary).  Their contact details are listed here.

Hi zacgiles, it is possible to transfer from a Bachelor of Business at Monash or another institution into our Bachelor of Commerce after a year of study.  You must ensure you meet the prerequisites for the Bachelor of Commerce (25 in Methods or Specialist Maths, 25 in English), and aim for a first year average mark of at least 70 to be eligible for transfer.  As transferring is a competitive process, the higher your average mark over 70, the better chance you will have of being successful.
