Hi All,
Many of you are probably snowed under with managing competing deadlines for assignments.
So I will keep this article brief so that you are not too distracted.
In this week’s edition of ‘Career Goat’ I would like to talk about ‘Employability Skills’.

How will our society look in the year 2050? How will technology change the way we interact? What will drive economic growth? What will the jobs of the future be like? How could we power the future? How can we care for an ageing population?
We are thrilled to launch Monash Future Thinkers: Australia in 2050, our inaugural event to be held on May 7th designed to foster the interdisciplinary conversation we need to have about our future.
Hi All,
The semester break probably seems like a distant memory as you become more entrenched in your studies.
In this week’s edition of ‘Career Goat’ I would like to talk about ‘Cover Letters and Resumes’.
Monash has created a new way for you to develop your employability skills online. It’s called Leap into Leadership Online (LiLO), and it’s made up of a suite of free online modules you can complete any time.
Hundreds of students have already completed the modules and given them great feedback – so make 2016 the year you become a leader.
After 18 months aboard the International Space Station a species of Fungi from Antarctica has survived Martian like conditions relatively intact.
At least 60% of the cryptoendolithic cells managed to survive the simulation and continued to exhibit stable DNA.
The fungi were kept in an environment of 95% CO2, 1.6% argon, 0.15% oxygen and 2.7% nitrogen at a pressure of 1,000 pascals. Samples were also exposed to harsh ultra violet radiation as they would be on the surface of Mars.
The simulation will help to provide answers on what biological life on Mars might look like and where it could be hiding.
Did you know that any integer with digits that add up to a number divisible by 3 is itself divisible by 3.
Give it a try, type any mess of numbers and tack on the last number to make the digits sum to a number divisible by 3.
For example:
42189012
4+2+1+8+9+0+1+2 = 27 (divisible by 3).
42189012 / 3 = 14 063 004 An integer!
How does this work?
Hi All,
Well I hope things are going well and you had time to attend the range of events as part of ‘Career Festival’ held at Monash.
