The Australian National University

Hello from ANU!

Future leaders, listen up!

Are you passionate about learning and eager to explore new ideas? Built on Ngunnawal and Ngambri land in the heart of Canberra, The Australian National University (ANU) campus is a hive of activity and discovery.

We are one of the great universities on the planet, and for good reason. Our research is excellent, and we have more subjects in the world’s top 20 than any other uni in the country. (1, 2)

You can study a single or flexible double degree at ANU. We teach various subjects, from art, robotics and astronomy to neuroscience, health and music. You can also take up a language; we teach 28, more than any other Australian uni – and produce the country’s most employable graduates. (3)

But ANU is much more than rankings. Our campus is a dynamic and exciting community!

Here are just a few of the things you can expect from studying with us:

• A vibrant student life and accommodation guarantee: 6,000 ANU students live in student residences and take part in clubs, societies, community gardens and more.
• Real-world internships unique to the national capital: Our connections with government, NGOs and the private sector give you access to some of Australia’s best internship opportunities.
• Renowned academics: Our lecturers are field experts passionate about their subjects. They teach in small, interactive classes and are committed to helping you succeed. (4)
• Amazing facilities: You can work in a recording studio, argue in a moot courtroom, look through the SkyMapper telescope and more. We have designed our lecture halls, laboratories and other learning spaces for exploration and collaboration.
• Cutting-edge research: ANU is at the forefront of research in a wide range of fields, from medicine to engineering to the arts, and it shapes national policy.
• Global citizenship: Studying with us is an opportunity to learn from and collaborate with students, lecturers and researchers from different cultures and backgrounds. 5
• Opportunities to study overseas: ANU colleges and study abroad programs take students overseas for a few weeks or a year to discover new cultures and build valuable networks.
