Monash graduates enjoy a high level of recognition everywhere in the world. Ranked 15th in the world by employers, it’s no wonder that a Monash degree provides the passport to a rewarding career! For the second year in a row, global CEOs and recruiters polled by The New York Times have voted Monash University “The best University in Australia from which to hire graduates” (The New York Times 2012).
Students who are looking for higher education options can now start their Monash University Foundation Year after O/Levels in Sri Lanka.ANC Education offers Monash College programmemes in Sri Lanka from 2006. Students after O/Levels can start the Monash University Foundation Year(MUFY), one year programme designed by Monash University to enter into top universities.
Students have the chance of finishing this programme within a shorter period as one year rather than following the two years course work of A/Levels to enter the university. The process of A/Levels takes more than 2 years with the results waiting time after O/ Levels to start the A/Levels and again after A/ Levels. All together this whole process takes more than 3 years. A student who follows the MUFY programme can enter the university 2 years ahead their peers.
MUFY programmemes guarantees entrance into Monash University upon successful completion of the programmeme with required grades. This gives a great chance for Sri Lankan students to enter a top world rank- ing university. Not only Monash Students can enter into any Australian university or top universities in UK, Malaysia, New Zealand, USA and Canada.
MUFY curriculum is equivalent to A/Level curriculum but students get the chance of studying under a university standard lecturing panel and the methodology and teaching style of an university. This gives a better preparation for the students to enter the university and adjust to it’s teaching style. Further, MUFY evaluates students knowledge on studies based on examination and course work. Not like other programmes final grade is not given only based on final examination. Students get marks through out the semester through continuous assessment. With this way the risk of failure is low. A comprehensive English course is included in the MUFY programme which prepares students for university style learning and writing with thematic writing, note form summary, argumentative and expository essay writing, research skills, listening and speaking skills.
With these advanced learning style, a student who goes through MUFY is better prepared for university learning process than a student who follows other types of programmes.For many MUFY students, the programmeme serves as an academic and cultural bridge from the education in their home country to the social and academic environment of an Australian university. MUFY prepares students for their desired Australian degree in a variety of areas including Engineering, Business, Information Technology, Arts, Medicine, Biosciences, Law, and much more.
TREVEEN PERERA
I joined Monash College in Sri-Lanka in year 2012 after completing my O-Level exams at The Westminster School in Dubai, UAE. I actually heard about Monash College/ University because of its great reputation and after considering the fact that it’s located in Sri-Lanka as well I decided to join the college. I am currently in the process of completing my Monash Foundation Year (MUFY).I am planning to complete the Diploma year also in Sri Lanka. Afterwards, I’m transferring to Monash University in Malaysia to start and complete my Bachelor of Commerce Degree in Marketing and Management (as a Double Major). The Monash Foundation Programme is exceptionally important as it has created a bridge between high school education and College/University education. The faculty at Monash College have been a great support in helping students like me to achieve life goals by creating an environment just right for people to pursue their educational goals and to have a successful educational future.

Engineering is one of the most popular study areas for Sri Lankan students with more than 50% of male students and more than 30% of female students selecting their secondary education with the potential ambition of being an engineer in the future. The important question is, how many know exactly what is meant by engineering and how many of these students can really become an engineer? Becoming an engineer is achievable but not an easy task without professional advice. In today’s world there are over 100 majors, or areas of study, in the engineering field. Unfortunately, most students and parents are not aware of these options and think only of a few commonly known fields, missing the best options. That’s why students need to do proper research and understand global trends in engineering.
There are more than 100 options in engineering, many of them emerging only in recent years as global development and discovery has accelerated. Engineering students must be “future focused”. Some of the more popular and rewarding areas of engineering include the following: Aeronautics and aeronautical engineering: This discipline covers subjects ranging from aerospace engineering to thermodynamics, biomechanics and computational control systems. Architecture: If you want to be innovative in making buildings and structures, then architecture is the stream for you. It is a combination of physics, mathematics, industrial design, urban planning, civil and mechanical engineering as well. Bioengineering: Study of bioengineering will help you improve of millions of people with a combination of medicine and technology. You must have a sound knowledge of statistics, computers, medicine, physics and chemistry to be a bioengineer. Biotechnology: Biotechnology includes options like zoology, pharmacology and immunology. Prevalence of biotechnology in everyday lives is becoming very common be it in medicines or processed foods that we consume. Chemical Engineering: Chemical engineers work towards the development of medicinal products and therapies and various chemical products used in homes and factories. Civil Engineering: Civil engineers toil hard in the open to develop buildings and houses bridges and other structures where we work and live. They also help them maintain those buildings.
