Monash University

aid: monash
name: Monash University
description: 'Monash University is a public research university based in Melbourne, Australia, and a member of the Group of
  Eight. It ranked #42 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public, machine-readable developer footprint is modest
  and largely indirect: research data is published through monash.figshare on the figshare platform (which exposes a versioned
  REST API and an OAI-PMH endpoint), and Monash eResearch operates a Cloud Resource Allocation and Management System (CRAMS)
  API portal. Monash maintains a GitHub organization (currently with no public repositories) alongside team and student-innovation
  orgs. No central, openly documented institutional developer portal for course, catalog, timetable, or SIS APIs was found
  to be publicly available.'
