Advisory Groups

Contribute to the wonderful work of the MGA!

The MGA Executive Committee office-bearers lead advisory groups to better understand the needs and interests of graduate students. These groups help shape decisions around events, activities, and key issues each semester. They also provide an opportunity for broader student engagement and peer connection.

Each advisory group will work closely with a specific office bearer or campus representative, providing feedback, ideas and insights relevant to their portfolio area. The groups are expected to:

• provide feedback on issues or initiatives affecting graduate students
• help identify priorities for MGA programs and advocacy
• support the planning and delivery of events or campaigns
• meet periodically (frequency to be determined by each Office Bearer)

Advisory groups that are available:

• international students
• queer students
• graduate research students (PhD and Master by Research students)
• graduate coursework students
• women's portfolio
• campus based (Clayton, Caulfield, Peninsula and Parkville)

Eligibility:

You must be a currently enrolled Monash graduate student. No prior experience is required - just a passion for improving the graduate student experience in your area of interest.

Interested? Submit your expression of interest (EOI) by Friday, 16 August 2025.
