Monash review

Simeon Thomas
7.5 /10

Reputation. Came to know through a friend. Easy admission process and quick responses to email queries. Met uni representatives in Bangalore which made it easier to get all questions answered. Studied BSc in my undergrad 65%. No other criteria was looked at for admission. Application fees were waived by the agency I applied through.

Course Curriculum :

Good material is provided in the curriculum and its Sometimes too theoretical.

Exams :

I was looking to join similar programs only. This is a growing field with many opportunities. The batch size is really large. Totally 96 credit points required to pass the unit. Only undergrad score was looked at during admission and work experience. TOEFL - 115 Undergrad - 65% (BSc 3year) Gre - 310

Placement :

No actual placements but you are prepared to get a job by developing skill and giving information right from the start of the course. Career counseling provides through the library. These sessions are used and provided by professionals.

Internship :

On campus jobs available. Apply online. But they fill up really soon. We can find jobs off campus. I worked 20 hours on a week. It was quite hectic to manage work and study. Internships available too.

Fees :

20300 aud per semester. Received scholarship of $12000 aud for the 2 year period. $3000 per semester. I think it is an international student scholarship. Not sure of criteria for scholarship. It was automatically given. I think work experience and undergrad score are considered. Also helps if you apply early. Loan of 300000 rupees availed through hdfc credila.

Scholarship :

I was automatically provided with a scholarship when I applied

Examination Structure :

Usually only 50% depends on the unit

Faculty :

Good teaching staff who are experienced and Knowledgeable. Mostly PhD holders. Lectures have many students over 100 depending on unit. But tutorials have only 15 students.

Hostel :

Off campus share house. It is cheaper. Have not lived on campus so not sure about life there. Expensive to eat out everyday. Better to cook. Housing is quite expensive. Finding a good house near campus which is close to public transformation is difficult.
