Bachelor of Agriculture at The University of Melbourne — a 3-year, full-time bachelor degree taught on campus at Parkville in Melbourne, Australia, with practical field units and residential study blocks at the Dookie agricultural campus in regional Victoria. International students from Malaysia and across Asia can apply for March or July intakes each year.

Indicative total fees are AU$ 170,854 (tuition + application fee), with live AUD to MYR conversion in the fee breakdown below. Figures are illustrative — your final amount follows the University of Melbourne’s official fee schedule for your intake year.

The University of Melbourne is ranked #33 in the world and #2 in Australia for Agriculture & Forestry in the QS World University Rankings by Subject, making this programme a leading choice for agricultural science, food systems, and study abroad in Australia.

What you will study: foundations in crop and animal production, soil and plant science, agricultural economics and agribusiness, biosecurity, water and resource management, and precision agriculture — including data analytics, drones, and farm technology. Year 2 includes alternate study at Dookie for hands-on farm and field experience alongside your Parkville classes.

Entry requirements for Malaysian and international applicants include UEC, STPM, A Levels, and ATAR pathways (minimum scores and subject rules are listed below), plus English proficiency such as IELTS 6.5 overall or equivalent PTE Academic scores. Scholarships and financial support are assessed case by case — contact our advisors for guidance.

Career outcomes after graduation include roles in sustainable farming and agronomy, agricultural research, water and environmental consulting, food security and biosecurity, agribusiness and supply-chain management, and pathways toward veterinary science — aligned with Australia’s growing agriculture, horticulture, and food export sectors.

Study in Melbourne — one of the world’s best student cities — with access to university libraries, student support, sports facilities, and industry-connected learning. Plan to apply at least three months before your course start; allow about one month for your offer letter and sufficient time to lodge your Australian student visa before you travel.

E-Square provides free one-to-one counselling for University of Melbourne applications: document checklists, personal statement support, fee and living-cost planning (including the Australian Government’s AUD 30,000 per year living-cost benchmark for international students), and WhatsApp follow-up from first enquiry to enrolment.
