    Yes. RMIT allows its international enrollees to work part-time and generally, students used to be allowed to work for 40 hours/fortnight in Australia if they come from a foreign country. During the holiday season, they can even work full-time. In 2023 the work restrictions for visa holders reintroduced and increased to 48 hours/fortnight
