Student Life at Melbourne Polytechnic
Our Student Life at MelbPoly (SLAM) team run the fun stuff on campus: things like movie nights, bake sales, careers expos, spring markets, and more. They also run competitions and share giveaways.
Melbourne Polytechnic employs the SLAM team to enrich the student experience. They have a presence on and off campus, and we're here for you, the student, so make the most of it. SLAM events are free and open to everyone. Come along and meet our close-knit communities, make friends and get involved in campus culture. SLAM also support and encourage students to build their skills and run their own events, fundraisers and competitions, so if you have an idea, please get in touch to see how we can help.
