WELCOME
By means of this brochure I am delighted to welcome
you to the inspiring world of Queen’s College. Founded in
1887, Queen’s College is an academic residential
community affiliated with the University of Melbourne. The
great majority of students at Queen’s attend the University
of Melbourne, and some attend the RMIT and the Victorian
College of Pharmacy.
The central aim of the College is to provide students with
the best possible environment in which to pursue their
graduate and undergraduate university studies.
Queen’s achieves this aim through the unique mix and
interactive nature of its community. About 250 residents
live in the beautiful buildings and grounds of the College,
including 220 undergraduate students (the Junior
Common Room), and 30 graduate and postgraduate tutors,
senior academics, professionals and staff (the Senior
Common Room). The Master, Vice-Master, Proctor and
Chaplain live on site.
The College provides students with accommodation,
facilities, activities and support for their academic work,
and for their broader intellectual, social and spiritual
development. Through these, students:
‣ build strong career, social and practical skills;
‣ develop as independent
and responsible individuals;
‣ contribute to the well-being of the College; and
‣ form friendships and connections that last a life-time.
