I've replied by private message regarding what it is like in the course, but maybe someone a little higher up can respond about the reputation.

Generally, The University of Melbourne is amongst the top 3 universities in Australia, and arguably has the best international reputation. However for the field of Finance i dont think the university is as strong as UNSW, Syd University or maybe even UQ.

From a Unimelb student: if you're interested in the quanty-side, go via the Maths dept, not via Finance...
