My opinion about UOM is that it is a good school that have connections to the industrial and can bring multiple professional peoples from industrial to teach us knowledges. I like how the university is holding Exhibitions to showcase students’ works.
View moreUniversity of Melbourne is a very diverse university. By celebrating differences and enhancing inclusion, the campus is a vibrant hotspot of thriving student life near the heart of Melbourne. Despite its many qualities, what makes it the best university to design in my opinion is the level of exposure and skill set gained during the degree. Having just completed my first year alone, I have worked on real life problems across the globe, met industry professionals and received training from them to hone my capabilities for better employment. Furthermore, the opportunities to develop soft skills is an asset the perfectly compliment the balanced academic rigour of the design degree at UOM. Opportunities to participate and organise student led events not only enhances the sense of community but improving the much needed qualities of leadership, communication and organisation. The location of the campus close to bustling urban core like Melbourne CBD also provides students across various faculties to engage their learnt skills through a multitude of internships and freelancing opportunities. This becomes especially important for a degree like design where market demands can be frequently changing.
Overall, the design degree at the University of Melbourne offers an opportunity for personal as well as professional development across faculties.
