This summer, the Skills Workshop* will be running intensive workshops before Semester 1 for students and recent graduates.

Please choose your choice of software training through the registration form. Once a nominated software receives the required number of registrations, registrants will receive a workshop itinerary and a reserved place in the workshop. Reservations are based on a first-come-first-serve basis.

*The Skills Workshop runs modelling and graphic software training for the Melbourne School of Design. The goal is to equip participants with the software knowledge to strengthen their design skills. Previous workshops include Rhino 5.0, Grasshopper 1.0, Revit 2014, AutoCAD 2014 and Adobe Suite CS6.

There is still time to re-enrol for 2015, however a late re-enrolment penalty of $100 will apply. The penalty re-enrolment period runs from Saturday 13 December to Friday 30 January.

All students who are currently enrolled, or on leave of absence, and who are planning to continue their course in 2015, must re-enrol. Re-enrolment involves signing the University's Enrolment Declaration for 2015 and enrolling in subjects, or applying for leave of absence for 2015.

Links to re-enrol are be available in my.unimelb.

The subject MAST10012 Introduction to Mathematics is offered in the Summer Semester for the first time in 2015, and will be taught online/by distance.

Students who have not completed VCE Maths Methods Units 3/4 (or equivalent) and who require MAST10012 Introduction to Mathematics as a prerequisite for subjects such as MAST10005 Calculus 1 may wish to consider completing MAST10012 Introduction to Mathematics this summer.

On Friday 19 December the University introduced a Weighted Average Mark (WAM). The WAM is designed to give you an indication of your overall academic performance.

The WAM will appear on your Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS), Statement of Results and your Results page in eStudent.

For detailed information about how the WAM is calculated, please refer to the ask.unimelb WAM Calculation FAQ.

Young Architects Competitions (YAC) is launching a competition to redesign one of the treasures of Rome: Forte Portuense.

How can former military architecture be transformed into a leisure time and cultural focal point? The aim for this competition is to look for ideas worth triggering urban redevelopment, social cooperation and tourism.
