The Melbourne Vision In pursuit of its vision to be one of the finest universities in the world, the University is guided by the following principles: > As a scholarly community, Melbourne will uphold the values of intellectual freedom, honesty, openness and rigour. > As a research institution, Melbourne will open new paths to scientific understanding, support critical and creative endeavour and provide an outstanding research training experience for future leaders in academia, government and industry. Melbourne will continue to support a comprehensive array of disciplines, while also directing additional funding towards disciplines of strategic importance in which the University is currently or potentially a world-leader. > As a teaching institution, Melbourne will seek out the brightest students from the widest range of backgrounds. It will offer an outstanding education designed to equip each New Generational cohort to succeed in a globalised environment, and define a future that it values. > As a public-spirited institution, Melbourne will ensure that its research, student learning and Knowledge Transfer programs help improve public policy and build a stronger and more tolerant community. > As an internationally engaged institution, Melbourne will work to meet global challenges with intelligence, ingenuity and respect for cultural difference and common humanity. It will draw on the rich diversity of its staff and student body, strong relationships with overseas partner institutions, and an alumni network of talented graduates spread across the globe. > As a university with a strong sense of place, Melbourne will cherish its campus locale, set in the vibrant multi-cultural metropolis of the city of Melbourne. Here face-to-face teaching will be the norm, scholars will gather from across the globe, and learning communities will enrich their work with evolving technologies. > As an employer, Melbourne will strive to develop exemplary employment practices for attracting, retaining and assisting the professional development of a talented and diverse staff and will support the educational goals of an inclusive, multi-cultural and humanitarian university. More than 500 of Victoria’s most talented secondary students from schools across the state converged on the Parkville campus as participants in the inaugural Kwong Lee Dow Young Scholars Program.
