The University of Melbourne is Australia’s No.1 university, and its brand acts as a magnet to attract the best minds and collaborators as they strive to address the world’s most pressing challenges.

Studio Binocular have worked with the University of Melbourne since 2009, during which time we have seen the University’s offerings grow to meet the changing demands of a competitive and dynamic educational market. We are proud to work with one of our country’s leading voices for innovation and change, and we’re proud to contribute to their work in educating future generations and discovering meaningful answers to complex questions.

Questions such as ‘What impact will AI have on the future of work?’; ‘What can global population data tell us about the cities of the future?’; ‘What’s next for post-resource boom Australia?’; ‘Is the world at risk of running out of food?’; and ‘What impact does education in the first five years of life have on our society?’

We have worked with all levels of the university – from undergraduate student recruitment through to industry research collaborations; from international alumni networks through to staff engagement programs; from graduate school brands to online study campaigns. We have helped individual schools and centres as they question the status quo and help to shape an unknown future.

Studio Binocular helps the University of Melbourne to articulate their complex offerings in a clear and engaging way, and we are constantly inspired by the important role the university plays – where unexpected encounters between ideas, people and disciplines lead to groundbreaking new solutions and fascinating discoveries.

Melbourne School of Engineering

Our work with the Melbourne School of Engineering is helping position them at the forefront of engineering and IT innovation to meet tomorrow’s challenges. The work has helped the school to better articulate their offerings and has enabled them to visualise their work in a way which has inspired audiences – tapping into the inherent creativity of people who can imagine a world where things are done differently.

In an era of lifelong learning – ongoing study is a part of so many professional lives. The availability of high quality 100% online programs has, until now, been limited.
