Away from the cities, Victoria has a wealth
of attractions for nature lovers.
Victoria’s size makes it easy to explore. Rent a car, catch a train or book a tour to see the Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island, The Otways, Wilsons Promontory and the Yarra Valley wineries. Go hiking in the You Yangs or the Grampians. Visit the historic cities of Healesville and Castlemaine, or take in the alpine wilderness of the Snowy Mountains area.
Victoria is Australia’s second most populous state. Originally inhabited by the Aboriginal people of the Kulin nation, Victoria is now
home to six million people from every part of
the world.

Bendigo
Bendigo
Bendigo is a vibrant hub in regional Victoria. Originally the epicentre of the 1850s goldrush, it is rich in Australian history and features grand, Victorian-era architecture. Bendigo also has a strong multicultural history, with one in five of the early population emigrating from China. Now a large and modern city, it remains surrounded by native bushland. This gives it a bright yet relaxed energy and
ensures a rich and focused learning experience.

La Trobe University is a registered provider under the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS). CRICOS Provider 00115M. Published by La Trobe University, May 2019.
La Trobe University acknowledges that our campuses are located on the lands of many Traditional Custodians in Victoria and New South Wales. We recognise their ongoing connection to the land and value their unique contribution to the University and wider Australian society.
La Trobe University is committed to providing opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, both as individuals and communities, through teaching and learning, research and community partnerships across all our campuses.
The wedge-tailed eagle (Aquila audax) is one of the world’s largest and the Wurundjeri people – Traditional Owners of the land where our Melbourne campuses are located – know the wedge-tailed eagle as Bunjil, the creator spirit of the Kulin Nations.
There is a special synergy between Bunjil and the La Trobe University logo of an eagle. The
symbolism and significance for both La Trobe and for Aboriginal people challenges us all to gamagoen yarrbat – to soar.
