The Australian National University is unique among its contemporaries as the only Australian university established by an Act of Federal Parliament, in 1946. It is also one of Australia’s most research-intensive universities, with a high ratio of academic staff to students.
The University campus has over 200 buildings and occupies 145 hectares adjacent to the city centre of Canberra.
The University also has smaller campuses:
- Mt Stromlo Observatory (west of Canberra)
- Siding Spring Observatory (near Coonabarabran, western NSW)
- North Australia Research Unit (Darwin, Northern Territory)
- Kioloa (coastal campus near Bawley Point, on the NSW South Coast).

ANU was established with a formidable responsibility to advance the cause of learning and research in Australia and take a rightful place among the great universities of the world.
The primary educational objective of ANU is to become the university of choice for talented students locally, nationally and internationally by offering a unique range of research-led degree programs.
Our seven Colleges, each a combination of Research Schools and Faculties, position us where few others can go. Where others derive their research from their teaching, ANU builds its teach on the base of its research. The benefits of this research-led education set our students apart.
