Institution overview
Box Hill Institute is a public vocational and higher education provider in Victoria, Australia. Its history begins with the Box Hill Technical School for Girls and Women, opened in 1924, followed by a technical school for boys in 1943. The predecessor colleges merged in 1984 to form Box Hill College of TAFE. The institute provides certificates, diplomas, advanced diplomas and degree-level education across a range of practical and professional fields. Its portfolio includes business, information technology, trades, hospitality, design, music, education and community services. Programme choices support initial career preparation, development of specialist skills and further academic progression. Teaching takes place through locations including Box Hill and Lilydale Lakeside, with facilities adapted to the subjects offered. The institute's history also includes governance of the Centre for Adult Education, extending its adult learning role. Industry-related projects and practical training contribute to the educational experience. Applicants can explore individual courses to establish the credential, campus and delivery arrangements. International applications require attention to both academic eligibility and English-language conditions, which are specified by programme rather than applying as one identical requirement across the institute.
