La Trobe University

1. We are committed about bringing about change for the good of the communities we serve, and our teaching and research are highly regarded for tackling some of the most important issues of our day.
2. We take pride in the fact that the majority of our graduates from regional Australia choose to pursue professions there, which helps to stem the flow of young people to Australia’s capital cities and strengthen local communities there.
3. Many of the university courses have been accredited by industry peak organisations. University courses have been developed in close collaboration with industry specialists to meet market demands. Our graduates are in great demand as a result.
4. We think everyone should have the chance to pursue their educational objectives in order to advance their careers. However, we are aware that not everyone has simple access – whether they are balancing family and job obligations or live a long way from our campuses.
5. One-button studios, a gait laboratory, a nursing simulation room, a TV and radio studio, Upstart journalism network, an on-campus podiatry clinic, a molecular science institute, the Nangak Tamboree Wildlife Sanctuary, and a variety of renowned research centres and institutes are just a few of the top facilities we have at our largest campus, Melbourne.
6. Importantly, our library is a top academic library that provides students with access to more than 2 million print and digital items, including books, journals, international newspapers, audio-visual materials, and databases of academic journal articles. We operate as a single service across all campuses.
7. As Australia’s top university for sports-related teaching and research, we are equipped with a $150 million sports park that includes world-class teaching and research facilities, an eight-court indoor multisport stadium, and strength and conditioning training. We also have computer labs and free WiFi on campus.
