thats why u dont do engineering, and u do pharmacy at parkville.
parkville campus has a very respectable reputation with one of the best (if not the best) pharmaceutical facilities that's is offered in australia.
also its pretty clean and the campus is pretty dam small (3 or 4 buildings) consisting of 3 lecture rooms and like 4 tutorials. also not too hard to get to'
best of all, all the lecturers are from parkville campus and teachers there and only there (no dodgy lecturers basically)
(ps. cbs grammar)

Well, if you've looked up the eng/pharmaceutical course this is basically what happens:
1st year: Parkville (pharmaceutical year 1)
2nd year: Clayton (yeah clayton..) engineering year 1 + pharmaceutical year 2 units
3rd year: Parkville (pharmaceutical year 3 + rest of year 2 units)
4th + 5th year: clayton (engineering)

i think its something like that, basically still 3 years in clayton

Yeah i've researched that course, and im pretty sure waht you said is wrong.

1st year is pharmsci year 1
2nd: engineering 1st & 2nd year squished together
3rd: pharmsci years 2&3 squished
4th & 5th: squished 3rd & 4th of engineering (requires overloading +2 units)

Well, i always thought Monash would be the perfect environment for me untill i went to the open day.... i totally dislike the location and buildings. lol

Lol i thought it would be like all new and shiny buildings etc

Then im like... wtf its so dirty and old looking, and the lecture theatres look like vampire dens

And the sky was dark and rainy on the day as well. >.<
It's all over now..

The science lecture rooms are really dirty and poor conditioned seats like the one in Building 24 S6 :/
the dull day didn't brighten anything either (only thing that brightened me was the 6 free pencils I got xD)

yeah, if you're doing eng/sci/biomed, hargrave will pretty much become your second home.
