“Murdoch is a place where natural curiosity thrives and the huge range of activities on the day will inspire a sense of wonder in all that can be achieved here,” she said.

Guidance will be available on course options, alternative pathways into Murdoch, enrolments, fees and scholarships, student support, overseas study opportunities and student accommodation. Those interested in postgraduate study will be able to chat to academics to find out how to forge ahead in industry and research.
