The Melbourne Campus at Burwood is Deakin's thriving metropolitan campus, attracting more than 13 000 undergraduate and postgraduate on-campus students.

The Campus is located alongside Gardiner's Creek parklands in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, about 45 minutes by tram from the city centre.

The Melbourne Campus at Burwood is noted for its modern architecture and facilities. The Central Precinct is designed to be multi-functional and flexible in a way that will allow Deakin to meet student needs and provide opportunities for engagement with the local community.

The redevelopment of the Campus has included the creation of two beautiful new, state of the art buildings on the Elgar Road side of the campus in which the Business Schools of the Faculty of Business and Law and the International activities of the university are located; the campus also features a large landscaped central courtyard as well as Science and Technology, and Health, Medicine, Nursing and Behavioural Sciences buildings.

There is also a new Contemporary Arts building, which includes the prestigious Deakin University Art Gallery (formally known as ICON Museum of Art), Motion.Lab motion capture facility, a purpose-built gymnasium and sports hall, food court, restaurants and bar, internet café, excellent learning facilities, the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) Test Centre, health care services, campus shop and bookshop.

Areas of study offered at the Campus include Arts, Business and Management, Communication and Media, Environment, Health and Community Services, Information Technology, Law, Nursing, Nutrition, Psychology, Science, Sport, Teaching and Visual, Performing and Creative Arts.

The Melbourne Campus at Burwood provides accommodation for 200 students in a mixed gender and multicultural environment.
