About La Trobe University
La Trobe University teaches more than 26,000 students from over 60 countries on eight campuses in Victoria and several overseas locations, including China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia.
La Trobe University’s main campus is in Bundoora, Melbourne, on a 400- hectare parkland site which includes a wildlife sanctuary. The campus also includes an extensive Research and Development Park, a hospital with student medical services and many recreational facilities. Its library is one of the leading university libraries in Australia, providing comprehensive services and support for teaching and learning, research and scholarship across all La Trobe campuses.
The University has five faculties – Education, Health Sciences, Humanities and Social Sciences, Law and Management, and Science, Technology and Engineering. Its substantial commitment to regional Victorian communities is reflected in the educational programs at its Albury-Wodonga, Beechworth, Bendigo, Mildura, Mount Buller and Shepparton campuses. There is also a campus in inner Melbourne.
La Trobe University supports and promotes teaching excellence. Graduates consistently rate the quality of teaching in the University highly in annual, independent surveys.
The University has a strong research profile, enhanced by the Institute for Advanced Study and over 20 nationally and internationally renowned research centres and institutes.
La Trobe University is committed to internationalisation through exchanges of students and staff and training and research programs. By establishing the International Network of Universities, the University encourages students to add an international dimension to their degree programs by undertaking one or two semesters of their studies in a partner institution overseas.
