Prospective students will be able to learn about studying abroad as part of their degrees at one of Monash's 120 partner universities or at one of Monash's international campuses or centres.
If you're thinking of becoming a teacher, but want to know what it's really like, you'll be able to find out when staff discuss the personal and professional requirements, the myths and realities, balancing home and workload, teaching rounds, study tips, uni life and more.
