We’re looking forward to increasing our campus-based in-person teaching and learning, study and social activities throughout 2022, and most importantly, welcoming you back to our campuses across Victoria.
We will continue to offer three modes of delivery in the first half of 2022 to cater for students overseas who may not be able to travel to Melbourne in time for the start of classes:
- Dual-Delivery: blend of online and on-campus delivery; all students can enrol in these subjects
- Online: delivered solely online with no on-campus or in-person activity; all students can enrol in these subjects
- Campus-based (in person): these subjects have a requirement for campus-based or in-person activities; only students who can attend campus can enrol in these subjects.
You can find the delivery mode for your subjects in the subject listing of the Handbook which is the source of truth for your course, subject information and participation/attendance requirements of your classes. 2022 subjects are now available.
COVIDSafe vaccination requirement
As part of our ongoing response to the pandemic to minimise the risk of COVID-19 to our community, COVID-19 vaccinations (or a valid exemption) are now a requirement for anyone attending our campuses or undertaking University activities in third-party or public settings. You can view a copy of the University’s COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements Policy.
International travel to Victoria
Studying online at Melbourne is an opportunity that is available to everyone regardless of your location or time zone. If you’re outside Australia and are unable to travel to Australia due to international travel restrictions, you do not need to worry - you’ll continue to have access to support services and opportunities in and outside of the classroom.
We welcome the Federal Government’s announcement to allow fully vaccinated, international students to enter Australia from 1 December without applying for a travel exemption. It follows the decision by the Victorian Government to allow fully vaccinated international students to return to Victoria without having to quarantine.
You can monitor the Australian Government travel restrictions website for the latest information. Continue to check our COVID-19 advice for international students and course and subject delivery information for details on how our current students are studying online.
Return to campus
We’re delighted to welcome you back to our campuses, and we look forward to being reunited with our students studying outside Australia when you will be able to join us.
We’ve been working hard to make sure our campuses are as safe as possible, so if you're planning to visit, or have classes or appointments on campus, make sure you complete the COVIDSafe LMS module and follow our COVIDSafe checklist to help ensure our community’s health, safety and wellbeing.
Many of our services will continue to operate virtually to reach as many students as possible, so it’s important to check what's available before dropping in, and book ahead where necessary.
Our return to campus is informed by government and public health advice. Learn more about our return to campus on the dedicated website.
Keeping you safe
There has been enhanced infection control and cleaning measures out into place across all of our campuses to ensure we are creating the safest environment and continuing to prioritise the health and safety for all of our staff, students and the local community.
