History

Founded by Francis Ormond, prominent grazier, Freemason and philanthropist, in 1887 as the Working Men's College (encapsulated in its motto: "perita manus mens exculta" translating to "a skilled hand, a cultivated mind"), and renamed the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in 1960, RMIT University gained formal university status in 1992.

The Working Men's College proved immediately successful, with over 900 students enrolled by the end of 1887. Students undertook a variety of courses including mechanics, physics, bookkeeping, elocution and arithmetic, as well as certain trades. Its campus was adjacent to the Old Melbourne Gaol on LaTrobe Street, and over the years has taken over the whole block as the Gaol was decomissioned and the university's courses increased in size.

The Emily McPherson College amalgamated with RMIT adding building 13 near the 888 monument that is just on the University grounds (at the corner of Victoria Parade and Russell Street), bringing on board courses in Cooking, Reading, Writing and other courses to get young people to levels of higher education entry.
