What we like about Melbourne Uni

Some of the old the campus buildings are very impressive (although, strangely, the Architecture building is one of the ugliest), and the landscaping is also quite nice.

The quality of teaching in the Architecture and Law faculties is rated very highly in comparisons with other Australian universities.

The numerous cafes around campus are a godsend for those in need of a caffeine fix, or just a place to relax.

There are clubs for almost any conceivable activity or interest, ranging from sports, to science fiction, to Amnesty, to African drumming.

The library system is extensive, with 11 libraries on campus.

We are also grateful to the university's exchange program, which gave us the opportunity of coming to Japan!
