Actually, they only take 75 students each year - it's a minimum of 50 places that get reserved for people in the biomedical science degree.

How hard is it to be one of those 25 students from BSci and others? Thanks!
2015: VCE
2016: BCivEng(Hons)/BCom at MU

Feel free to PM me for your engineering queries

Students from Pharmacy, Physiotherapy and Science are eligible to apply for the remaining 25 places. The Bachelor of Science single degree took in around 800 students last year however not every one of them would be eligible to apply for the grad entry MBBS program.  Only students who have completed the required 5 units as part of their Science degree would be eligible. The full list of units can be found here http://med.monash.edu.au/medicine/admissions/grad-entry/2017-entry.html .
In addition to the unit requirements students would need to attain a sufficiently high academic average (at least a distinction or higher average to be considered) in order to be invited to the interview, which would need to be successfully passed.
The chances would therefore largely depend on your academic average, interview performance and completion of the requisite units.

This is an appreciated thread. Thank you for your time.

I have been waiting for a couple of months to apply for Honours (School of Literatures, Languages, Cultures and Linguistics), commencing Semester 1, 2016. I have been hesitant, because my reading was that online applications were only available for Semester 2, 2015. Now that I check again, the link (below) seems to be broken.

http://artsonline.monash.edu.au/future-students/applications-and-eligibility/

Is this just a case of being too eager? Will the online applications for Semester 1, 2016 become available soon, or am I simply looking in the wrong place?

Thank you. :)

Thank you for the appreciation and you're most welcome :)  We're working to fix the link and in the meantime, try this one: http://artsonline.monash.edu.au/future-students/honours/application/ Although you are a bit eager (we like eager ) - applications will be assessed from mid-September and close on the 31 October.

The Laws (Juris Doctor) requires a completed Bachelor’s degree. As long as the degree is equivalent to an Australian Bachelors level degree it can be considered and this can include degrees from University of Melbourne. Applicants would need to complete their degree qualification with a sufficiently high academic average (GPA of 5.2 on a 7 point scale) and have no fails in their final year. You can look up additional information here

Can you do a bachelor of business with a triple major in three years? Or just a double major?

You can complete two majors (double major) but not three. The Bachelor of Business is a three year course and part of the requirements for this degree is that you complete a major in a particular area. A major essentially represents 8 units of study in a chosen discipline and takes up a third of your 24 unit/3 year degree. The Bachelor of Business also has 8 elective units as part of the course. These elective units impart a degree of flexibility to the course and one of the things they can be used for is to do another or second major. Unfortunately a third major is not possible within the course structure.

If you wish to learn more about the course structure of various Monash courses you can download our faculty publications via the below link
http://www.monash.edu/study/schools/publications

Page 23 of the Business and Economics publication located under “Faculty Course Guides” details the course structure of the Bachelor of Business.

Does the Uni help with work placement, and industry exposure for Engineering, or is that something the student has to do themselves.

Secondly, with the double degree in Engineering/Science, is the Science major for limited fields, or do all possible areas apply? Apparently I've heard it has to tie in with your Engineering study as well.

Also you could argue this final question is for some constructive banter, but why choose the Monash Engineering Pathway as opposed to Melbourne's? ;)
The GOAL: Attain a RAW study score of 40+ in all my subjects.

Courses I would like to study in order of preference include: Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS), Bachelor of Biomedicine or Bachelor of Science.

2014: Biology [42]
2015: English Language [??] | Chemistry [??] | Physics [??] | Mathematical Methods (CAS) [??] | Specialist Mathematics [??]

Mainly because it's quicker, unless you want to do a double degree in Eng/Sci @ Monash in which case it'd be the same period of time.

I personally reckon there's way more to it than that, but this could be opinion. (I obvs do not represent Monash's official stance)

The engineering degree is engineering focused, so if you're not interested in science/arts/commerce at all, that's definitely a plus over the Melbourne model. Not to mention the ability to really try as many different streams of engineering as possible (you should have seen a bit from all of them before you hit second year), as opposed to the Melbourne model where you won't see them all because breadth and other course requirements.

Hi,

about the process of transferring to Monash from other universities -

http://www.monash.edu.au/study/coursefinder/course/4632/domestic-requirements.html?courseview=domestic

Does the above page imply that Monash still considers ATAR even after an entire year at another uni? Are there any indicative entry standards (e.g 70% average) for start of year transfers?
14: VCE
15-17: in a coma
18: BCom

So for law at Monash, the guarantee program states that a 94 atar is the minimum required if you qualify for one of the categories.
Lets say you qualify for 2 or 3 seas categories does that mean theres a chance of getting in with an atar below 94 , or is 94 the lowest you could possibly achieve?

Thanks !

I am an experienced engineering student so I can answer some of your questions.

1 - No, uni does not help you with internship/vacation work. You have to find it on your own. You can still graduate but I doubt you will find a job without one.

2 - For aero/science, the science part is strictly restricted to applied maths and physics. You need a minor in physics.

3 - Monash has changed the structure of the first year engineering. I still like the old way of teaching. That might be something you might want to consider if you don't want to learn 3 units of contents in 12 weeks (mostly likely you won't learn as much compared to the old system)

2012 ATAR:88.90

2013-2015 Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering and Science (dropped in 2015)
2015-2017 Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical)

The Monash MBBS program takes in approximately 250 domestic CSP students a year into the program with the bulk of them coming from Victoria. On average about three quarters of those come from Victoria.  If you are interested in additional information on the MBBS program you can download a MBBS specific publication listed under “Other Faculty publications” via the below link
