Every execution links back to research, initiatives, and programs of work being done at Monash to safeguard the future. The fictitious scenarios aim to represent a problem at crisis point and take audiences on a journey right through to the solutions being pursued through various streams of work at Monash University
Every year high school students are bombarded by university recruitment campaigns. So, while other universities showed students a perfect future, Monash University stood out by showing one plagued by problems.
Help Monash University stand out in a competitive and homogenous category by challenging people’s perceptions of what a university and higher education can be about.
VML created A Future Without Change, giving students a glimpse into what our world could become if we merely adapt to the issues we face instead of changing them.
We attracted students through a digital and physical experience that shows a dystopian view of the inventions that will need to exist if we don’t create the necessary change.
With the help of each faculty, the team created 17 products that shouldn’t exist. These were brought to life through a multi-sensory campaign that the public could touch, hold, smell, taste and interact with.
By showing a future that shouldn’t exist, the integrated campaign – supported by digital OOH, online films, social posts and ongoing VR experiences – helped recruit and inspire the next generation to change it.
Over 12,000 people engaged across two activations, with 24.6% of student visitors registering to a faculty, making Monash the No.1 Preference University in the country.
