Melbourne Named Most Liveable City-Again!
The city of Melbourne, Australia has once again been named by World's Most Liveable City by the Economist Intelligence Unit's (EIU) Global Livability Survey. Melbourne has received this top honor for three years straight. The ratings of cities worldwide were based on stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education and infrastructure.
IFSA-Butler offers two outstanding programs in Melbourne: Monash University and the University of Melbourne. Both are top-ranked universities that offer a huge range of subjects and terrific student support.
