Student Oriented Service

At MIT Campus we are proud of our friendly personalized and efficient service, making students feel comfortable in a pleasant and caring atmosphere. 

As many of our students come from overseas, particular attention is given to facilitating the transition from their own culture and education system to a very different one. Individual services include personal counselling, study support, airport reception and accommodation assistance.

Fast-track three-semester system with flexible study option

The three semesters in one year option enables students to fast-track their studies. This flexibility means that students can complete their university degree one year earlier than students studying in a conventional two- semester system.

Highly-competitive fee structure

The fees for MIT Campus courses will be seen to be highly competitive when compared with what is being offered by many other institutions, particularly in the light of the other advantages of studying at MIT.

Highly-qualified academic staff

MIT academic staff are highly qualified and offer high-calibre teaching and a caring environment for our students.

Extra support classes

At MIT we understand that studying in a new environment, away from home, with new friends, and in a new system of learning can sometimes be difficult. These difficulties may adversely affect academic performance. In order to help students who are having difficulty coping with their studies, MIT provides additional study support through extra classes by our dedicated lecturers, on an individual basis, in such areas as communication skills, exam preparation, assignment preparation and enabling classes in programming subjects. This is at no extra cost.

Small class size and individual attention

We assist our students to succeed.

At MIT classes consist of small groups. This provides students with maximum opportunity for individual guidance by lecturers. Small class size encourages participation and develops student confidence. The result is a strong foundation for university study, with its emphasis on individual initiative. Mentors will monitor individual student's overall welfare and assist with their academic development, guiding them towards excellence in academic performance. This is a regular and ongoing process at MIT.  In addition, students finding difficulty in a particular subject can receive one-to-one tuition free of charge. Staff are concerned with the overall welfare of each student, not only with study-related matters.

Central city location

MIT is located right in the heart of the City, just around the corner from Melbourne Central Station. All main tram and bus routes pass nearby. A post office, all major banks and a supermarket are within a couple of minutes' walk. MIT is surrounded by a wide variety of department stores, food outlets and other services. Chinatown and the Queen Victoria Market are within easy access, and the specialty shopping areas of Chapel Street, Brunswick Street and Victoria Street are only a short tram ride away.

Work Experience Program

MIT offers its students a unique program of work experience to assist them with preparing for the world of work.

The program covers knowledge, skills and attitudes which focuses on good work practices and ethics. These include  customer relations, time management, telephone skills, dress code,  prioritizing of work, how to work in a team , how to handle stress and preparation of job applications and resumes.

The program is offered part-time each semester and admittance to the program is by application.  It is offered in two parts,  an initial  preparation and training period followed by actual placement at MIT.  Work placement for up to one year can also be arranged at appropriate companies through MIT.

The program is extremely rewarding and each students receives a final assessment, a reference and a Certification on completion.

Recruitment Agency

In line with MIT's strength and commitment, Melbourne Institute of Technology Recruitment Agency (MITRA) has been established to help our graduates find employment in their field of study.

Jackie Torry, our Recruitment and Careers Officer has many years recruitment/placement experience working alongside Employers, Students, and Graduates in the selection and matching of quality candidates. Jackie's approach is focused on quality results that meet the needs of employers and graduates alike.

MITRA Objectives

At MIT we are committed to providing relevant career services to our students and graduates.

“Career development is the responsibility of the individual not the employer”

For most people, career development begins after graduation. At MIT, your career development begins from day-one. We believe that the most successful graduates are the ones that, despite the pressure of their studies, take a proactive approach to their career planning.

We work with our students to guide their individual career development. Our dedicated staff will provide you with a comprehensive service that will equip you with lifelong career development knowledge and skills. We offer career counseling, skill development workshops and information services throughout the academic year. The skills you develop while you are at MIT will be ‘skills for life' to be drawn upon throughout your entire career.

Best of all MITRA is a professional recruitment agency whose ultimate focus is on the placement and recruitment of our graduates. After graduation, we continue to offer assistance to our alumni to support their lifelong career and recruiting needs. We serve as a graduate link to industry, partnering with prospective employers to identify qualified candidates that meet specific recruiting objectives.

We believe that at MIT we have the programs and the support to help you realise your potential.
