Guys, does Monash offer a business diploma or foundation course? can't seem to find much on their website.
*
In Malaysia there's no Diploma by Monash as far as I know. Monash Sunway only offers from Bachelor Degree up though Monash University Foundation Year (MUFY) is offered in Sunway University College.
If Aussie there's Diplomas by Monash College and MUFY by Taylor's College

Not even a foundation course, bro?

like I said earlier.In Malaysia, Monash University Foundation Year is offered through their partnership with Sunway University College so if you want to do Foundation for Monash you would have to do it in Sunway UC.

just find your degree programme on the monash website. From there a bit of browsing and you will find the structure of the degree like which units are compulsory etc. and usually you can click on each of those subjects which will bring you to a page showing the description of the subject which also shows how much % each part carries etc.

I do agree in that but however if the grades are 80,80,80 50 then the average weighting would be 72.5 which is a big difference to 81.25. Second question is since it's a basic monash undergraduate degree, How is it classified?
*
A general Bachelor Degree from Australia does not have any classification. It's just simple as Bachelor of Commere. No classification of class or anything. To know how you have fared people would have to look at your official transcript and see your CGPA and WAM. In Australia people would mostly look at the WAM while in other places it's up to their preferences.

hi guys i got  i need some help i asked my sister told me her GPA is 1.85 but her WMA is 62.9 or something or rather so how would this define whether the degree is first second or third class? thanks
*
What programme is she from?
Unless she has done the additional Honours year, Australian three year Bachelor Degrees are not classified into Honours.
Even if you get a CGPA 4.0 and WMA 85 or you get a CGPA 2.0 and WMA 50.0 you still get the same Pass Bachelor Degree.

Anyway most Honours in Monash are awarded according to the Weighted Average and how it is classified differs according to faculty you would have to check the specific programme.Automatic Honours are only for programmes that are 4 years in length or longer. 3 year programmes need to undergo 1 more additional Honours year which can only be undertaken upon invitation by the Uni so you need to have decent results for that.

and mostly after surfing through several of the Monash faculty websites on Honours it seems mostly a credit average is needed for the lowest level of Honours with some the specific average changing from year to year based on some formula and some setting it at a credit average of 65% etc. check your faculty webpage to see specific info on it. Usually lower than those you get a Pass Degree like any other that didn't undergo Honours year.

Hi i will get back to you on what faculty she is in , so basically once she grad the degree wont say if its 1st,2nd or 3rd it will just say a bachelors in ..... like that without any reference 2 which division?
*
Basically yeah.Unless the programme is a 4 year or longer programme like Engineering,Medicine etc. that has Automatic Honours then there will be a difference with the top scorers getting first class,average people earning second class Division A or Division B but other 3 year programmes like business, the majority of students will not undergo the additional Honours year and will just graduate with a simple pass degree entitled Bachelor of Business and Commerce for example without any indication of class.Future employers will have to look at your official transcript in order to know how well you have done in the programme.

Hey guys, does Monash offer twinning programs? O_o; for business and commerce?
*
Monash Sunway does not offer any twinning programmes at all. They are a full campus of Monash University, Australia therefore programmes offered in Monash Sunway are not twinnings. If you are looking to transfer to Australia then you may attempt to perform an inter-campus transfer after your first year or so.

Dear seniors, I am a August 2010 intake for Monash Malaysia Bachelor of Business & Commerce. I need some opinion on which campus to go if I want to major in Accounting & Finance. Heard that Caulfield is or is it Clayton is a bigger campus with more facilities.And we can only transfer after we complete 8 units right? If I transfer in the last year of my studies it is possible right? And what about the fees, is it follow Malaysia fees of RM30k plus/yr? Thanks
*
the best is if you can get into Clayton, if not Caufield is good too. Clayton is the main campus of Monash and the biggest. I heard they are changing the one in Peninsular from Bachelor of Business & Commerce to the same one like Caufield.
Unless your going there on exchange though I think you want to do an inter-campus transfer, once you transfer you will not be paying Sunway Campus's Fees anymore, you shall pay the fees like any other international students in Aussie, which right now amount to about AUD$ 31k per year which is about RM 94k and it'll probably increase more in the future.

according to the Course Management Office people in our orientation last August, if you want to go to Clayton you need to take Business & Economics statistics. may i know what is this subject about? Is it the same like A Level statistics? And what is the difference between business stats and biz & eco stats. thanks
*
I'm not from A-Levels so I can't quite tell you how different or similar it is with A-Level statistics but you can view the course synopsis yourself and compare then
ETW1102 - Business statistics

ETC1000 - Business and economic statistics

im planning to do intercampus exchange/transfer to aussie in year three..and there's a requirement saying that we have to meet australian higher year 12 math..

I took foundation in arts @ sunway university college, is the syllabus met the requirement?
*
I doubt so. Go check in the Monash website, there's something called In2Monash or something there that would show if there's an equivalent subject to year 12 maths though I doubt Sunway's Foundation in Arts math meet the requirement.
If you do not meet the requirement, there are certain subjects you can take during your degree that can satisfy the requirement, go talk to your course counselor about it.
You need year 12 maths to go to Clayton,Caufield and if I'm not mistaken Peninsular is changing to Bachelor of Business like Caufield instead of Bachelor of Business & Commerce so you need it there to. Other places, it's like Sunway you just need year 11 maths.

Entry into programmes like Pharmacy and Medicine are very competitive. You might as well forget it if you just get all passes. Even meeting the minimum requirements is not enough to get in because of the competition and the minimum requirement itself is above average.

the minimum requirement from MUFY to enter Pharmacy in both the Sunway Campus, Malaysia and Parkville, Australia is 340/400 and 70% from English and minimum 80% in MUFY Chemistry and Mathematics.

Hi everyone. Have a question here. Is there any chance entering monash pharmacy with SAM score of 85? The requirement stated is 90. If I appeal, would it normally be successful? Thanks.
*
that's far under the minimum requirements ^^" I don't think your appeal will be successful, maybe if a bit lower it's possible if they want more students to fill in places but ATAR 90 and ATAR 85 is too far apart in my opinion for this case

hrrrmm....since when Business Commerce course require Add Maths as pre-req?

Monash's Bachelor of Business and Commerce has always has year 11 Math and year 12 English as a pre-requisite in which SPM's add math is Malaysia's equivalent to year 11 math.
Their Bachelor of Business or Bachelor of Commerce in Aussie would need year 12 Math.

Newbie here. Need some advice from people with experience.  icon_question.gif

I just finished my SPM last year and I plan to enter Monash University through MUFY (July '11 Intake) @ Sunway College. I learnt that Malaysian students need to complete MQA Malaysian Language & Moral Studies in MUFY in order to enter Monash. However, I've also heard from others that you can skip the MQA in MUFY and complete it in Monash.

1. Can we do the MQA in Monash instead of MUFY?
2. Is the MQA needed if I were to apply to Monash in Melbourne?
3. Can MUFY be used to enter other Universities in Australia besides Monash?

Thanks
*
Usually you won't be allowed to graduate without doing MQA subjects but I don't know if you can get away with it in MUFY.
You can do MQA subjects in Monash Sunway but I heard the times they place it is not really convenient as they are only a small number of people that did not do MQA subjects yet.
You only take Bahasa Kebangsaan A if you don't have a credit in BM for SPM, if you do then your exempted from BKA and only have to take Moral Studies and Malaysian Studies.

2. No
3. Yes

No, they do not. In fact, they do not offer any twinning programmes at all.
All Degrees are awarded by Monash University.

hum that's weird ^^" Since as far as I know once can only get exempted from Bahasa Kebangsaan but not any of the other two. Where did you do your pre-u? Did you do A-Levels? Probably because they can't stop you from getting your final results even if you didn't do MQA subjects? hmm.gif

Hi guys, have a burning desire to ask many questions, since I am a lazy-bum to read through 60 pages, excuse me tongue.gif

1. In Monash, is there a student exchange programme to other campus in Australia? Like the one in Nottingham?
If there is, is it limited and extremely competitive?

2. Engineering question:
In my recent visit to an Australia education fair, the Australia universities are using a different system with those in Malaysia. (I gathered the resources from U.Sydney and U.Melbourne, hence I assume it is the same as Monash). There, they are offering 3 years of Bachelor in Sciences and either 2 years of Master in Engineering OR they invite you for 1 years of honours. In monash sunway, the engineering degree offered is a 4-year courses. Does that means in monash sunway you automatically get a degree in Engineering (honours) if you complete the course?

3. According to above, if a students transfer from monash sunway to Australia, we will be studying under a different system of Australia? Will it still be a 4-year engineering course so as to be accredited by BEM?

4. Is it uncommon for students to transfer from Monash Sunway to Monash in Australia? Will it be hard to cope?
Lets assume that money is not a problem, is it recommended to transfer during my 2nd or 3rd year?
Thanks guys  thumbup.gif
*
1. Yes

2. I don't know about Uni of Sydney but Uni Melbourne generally uses a different system than the others. Monash's style is the norm, they offer a 4 year BEng that you can enter straight after pre-u and because it is a 4 year degree, there is automatic Honours like UK degrees.

3. Monash Sunway's programme is exactly the same as the one offered in Monash Clayton except the availability of certain electives and majors not available here. Both offer 4 year Degrees that's recognized by BEM.

4. From what I have heard quite a lot transfer to Aussie though there are certain average marks that you need. Since it's the same syllabus and structure the only thing you need to cope with the difference in environment.
