                                                      For 60 years, we’ve been working to change the world,
                                                      and we’re not about to stop. At Monash, we see challenges
                                                      as opportunities to make things better.
                                                      It’s hard to imagine a time when the need to make positive
                                                      change has been greater than now.
                                                      We want you to help us do it.
                                                      Whether you want to change your life, your career, your
                                                      community or the world, your journey starts at Monash.

                                                      That’s why all Monash students, lecturers, researchers,

                                                      making real change.

                                                      a difference.
