Why study at Gippsland?

Gippsland campus

There are many reasons to come and study IT with GSIT and Monash University. GSIT and the Gippsland Campus specialises in off campus learning (OCL). This allows many students the ability to integrate study and work regardless of location. On campus study offers a high staff to student ratio with small class sizes, thus greater accessibility to lecturers and tutors. Another advantage is greater accessibility to computer laboratories with two 24 hour labs available.

The Gippsland Campus combines the prestige of Australia's largest university with the benefits of a unique rural setting. The Gippsland campus is also only 90-120 minutes from Melbourne by car. The Gippsland campus has a successful history in international and regional focused teaching, learning and research.

The Gippsland region is large and diverse, from the sea to the mountains. The landscapes, people and history make the Gippsland region an important place to explore. The region is attractive to many tourists every year so why not study and explore at the same time.
