CRICOS: 00116K

2. A tradition of scholarship
> Established in 1853: Australia’s second oldest University
> 1855: teaching commences with 16 male students
> 1883: First Australian female graduate from the University of Melbourne
> 1922: Melbourne University Press founded, Australia’s first scholarly publisher
> 1945: First Australian University to offer PhD
> 1955: First computer built in Australia housed at the University of Melbourne
Historical context:
Melbourne was officially settled by Europeans in 1835
Victoria achieved independence from NSW in 1850 and established its own Government
NSW set up the University of Sydney in 1852
Keen rivalry ensured that the University of Melbourne was proclaimed in 1853 with the aim of “establishing young men in philosophy, literature and piety, cultivating talent of youth, fostering the arts and extending the bounds of science”.
First professors selected through a committee set up in London
teaching commenced with 16 male students, almost 10 years later there were still only 56 students
Medicine opened to women but only after much debate as to whether or not they should be segregated. A compromise was finally reached whereby men and women would share lectures but be segregated for dissection and hospital instruction.
1922: Melbourne University Press changed its name to Melbourne University Publishing in 2003
First PhD awarded to Erica Wolffe for her study on the French Australian writer Paul Wenz. The University has now awarded over 5000 PhDs

The six measures used to determine a university’s ranking were;
the quality/international standing of staff,

the university’s resource levels and
a survey of opinions of university chief executives and Australian deans.
