Located at Room 6-4-52 (Building 6, Level 4), the MUPA Lounge is open to all postgraduate students. It is an ambient space to chill, play boardgames or hangout with a small group of friends.
Application for booking the facilities is to be made online using this link, with all required details.
The person making the application, whether it is for personal use or on behalf of another person, shall be deemed ‘the Hirer’ and shall be fully responsible and liable for the application and any breach of the terms and conditions given below.
The Hirer must at all times act in good faith and comply with any and all applicable laws (including but not limited to the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 and Private Higher Educational Institutions Act 1996), rules, regulations, requirements and directives of the University, and otherwise.
If the Hirer has breached any of these Terms and Conditions, the Committee has absolute discretion to immediately terminate or cancel the booking of the facilities at any time and all other ongoing or future bookings of the Hirer (if any).
In addition, the Hirer shall also be liable for any damages to the facilities.
The Hirer shall be responsible for and shall pay to MUPA the cost of any damage (beyond fair wear and tear) to the MUPA, its property, fittings, furniture, instruments and equipment, whether mechanical or electrical, resulting from the hiring of the facilities.
The Hirer is also responsible for reporting to the Committee, through the mupa.welfare@monash.edu email, any damage arising from wear and tear of the premises, any breakdown or maintenance requirements arising or spotted before, during or after the event/activity.
In the case of need for cancellation, please advise MUPA welfare via mupa.welfare@monash.edu two working days prior to the booked date. Failure to inform cancellation for three times will result in banning the use of the booking system for lounge facilities for a duration of three months as you are depriving other students from using the facility.
The committee reserves the right to refuse any bookings if there are records that terms and conditions were breached on a previous booking by the same Hirer.
Should an urgent need arise, the Committee may revoke a booking to accommodate a campus/ MUPA need. This will be notified to the Hirer as soon as possible.
