Where we're from

Our team comes from RMIT University in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.


RMIT University Melbourne

The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University is one of Australia’s leading educational institutions, producing some of Australia’s most employable graduates.

As an innovative, global University of technology, RMIT has an international reputation for excellence in work-relevant education and high quality research.

It has built a worldwide reputation for excellence in professional and vocational education and research. A vibrant alumni community now stretches across more than 100 countries.

RMIT is also a member of the Australian Technology Network (ATN). The ATN is a coalition of five Australian Universities that share a common focus on the practical application of tertiary studies and research as a framework of flexibility and innovation. The focus of the ATN is to produce graduates and research that is closely aligned to the needs of industry and the wider society. The ATN Universities share a common background in the way they distinguished themselves as technical colleges before becoming accredited Universities.

Melbourne, Australia

There is a lot to love about Melbourne. This sophisticated world city is in the south-eastern corner of mainland Australia.

Melbourne is very much about lifestyle. It is no huge surprise to residents that their city has been ranked as one of the world’s most livable cities.

Melbournians love the city's vibrant energy, restaurants, fashion boutiques, café-filled laneways, cool bars, unbeatable galleries, spacious parks and village-like inner suburbs, each with its own special character.

Melbourne is less than 200 years old and never sits still. Modern, cutting-edge designs add to the fascinating mix of heritage architecture and ensure the skyline is constantly changing.
