Graduate AttributesMonash Graduate AttributesThe Academic Board, at Meeting 6/2008 on October 8, endorsed the following statement which includes revised graduate attributes. The statement was proposed by the Education Committee, following on from the work of the Graduate Attributes Implementation Group.
“Adopt as your fundamental creed that you will equip yourself for life, not solely for your own benefit but for the benefit of the whole community.” The University’s statement of purpose, as articulated in Monash Directions 2025 and reflected in the Monash Passport, emphasises that Monash is a university whose graduates embody its distinctive approach and commitment to social justice. The explicit claim is that “When they graduate they will be equipped to live, learn, work and contribute globally. They will have been inspired by our internationally-focused, research-led teaching and wish to use their talents to improve the world.” The Monash Graduate Attributes expand on these aspirations and reflect the vision of Sir John Monash. They form the foundation for the discipline-specific attributes that Monash students develop in preparation for their future. Monash University prepares its graduates to be:
1. responsible and effective global citizens who:
2. critical and creative scholars who:
• produce innovative solutions to problems
