We are arranging prospectiv­e students who wish to enroll in Monash University of Melbourne and UNSW in Sydney in the Feb 2019 intake, to meet University representa­tives and faculty representa­tives at a specially arranged interview session at Edlocate Colombo office on 10th July. These one on one interviews for students and parents are the best ways to get all the informatio­n you need with complete privacy and without pressure from other parties waiting to meet them which invariably is the case at open events.

Both these universiti­es are Go8 universiti­es in Australia. UNSW is ranked #45 and Monash #60 in the 2018 QS World University rankings just released. The degrees awarded by these two universiti­es thus have worldwide recognitio­n.

After years of expansion, the university now has five local campuses throughout Victoria, two internatio­nal locations in Malaysia and in South Africa, and centres in the People’s Republic of China, Italy and India.

Apart from quality education, Monash also boasts of high calibre academics. Fifteen academics from Monash University have been recognised in the 2018 Queen’s Birthday Honours List for their outstandin­g contributi­on to Australian society. Such is the calibre of their academics.

Students who have financial constraint­s can enroll in Monash Australia through Monash Malaysia pathway, which too Edlocate can facilitate as we represent the latter university also.

UNSW has a proud tradition of sustained innovation, focusing on areas critical to our future – from climate change and renewable energies to life saving medical treatments and breakthrou­gh technologi­es in the social sciences.

UNSW offers an extensive range of undergradu­ate, postgradua­te and research programs including underg raduat e Medicine. UNSW Medicine is one of Australia’s great medical schools.
