1991 - Gippsland joins Monash

In 1991 Monash University College Gippsland became part of Monash University.

Today: The Gippsland campus began in 1926 in Yallourn, a town largely built to house workers for the State Electricity Commission (SEC) coal mine. In 1968 the technical school became the Yallourn Technical College (YTC).

In 1972, the College moved to its present site at Churchill where it became the Gippsland Institute of Advanced Education (GIAE).

After an initial period as Monash University College Gippsland, the campus officially became part of the Monash University family in 1991. Since that time, the campus has developed into a complete tertiary education provider, with local, national and international appeal.
