RMIT's presence in the Central Business District of Melbourne is a culturally and socially defining one for the city since the late 19th Century. Over more than one hundred years, RMIT City campus has become an integral feature of Melbourne's character. Unlike other university campuses, it isn't closed off, or surrounded by walls—City campus life is Melbourne city life.
Located between LaTrobe, Elizabeth, Queensberry and Russell Streets, along with Storey Hall on Swanston St., the campus occupies a relaxed, friendly and culturally vibrant section of the city. In the midst of galleries, restaurants and bars, and close to the State Library, Lygon Street restaurants and the Queen Victoria Market, students have access to a unique academic and social environment.
