Faculty of Arts is the original and oldest faculty at the University of Melbourne. They are a diverse faculty with a common commitment to innovation and community engagement. They offer programs as wide-ranging as Indigenous Studies, Classics and Indonesian language. At the same time, they provide employment-relevant specialisations in such fields as public policy, journalism, linguistics, cultural conservation and development studies.

Their programs reflect the inspiring ambitions of the Melbourne degrees with features such as: common curriculum in first year, clearer sequences through the three years, capstone subjects in every major, and improved opportunities for internships and study abroad programs.

Student testimonial

Deborah Ng

Bachelor of music(Honours)

"Melbourne has a vibrant arts scene so the idea of living and studying music in city was very appealing. I decided to move to Melbourne from Western Austrailia to study at the MCM because of the reputation of the institution and the great teachers."
