About the Colleges
The Australian National University is an education-intensive research institute, with the view that if it is important enough for us to research a field, it is important enough for us to teach that field.
ANU has seven Colleges, made up of the research and education Centres, Schools and Faculties that contribute to the various broad disciplines.
The ANU Colleges link research and teaching at undergraduate, postgraduate and higher degree levels, and give the base to achieve research at the highest standards of excellence,
educational programs informed by current research and active researchers that give students a memorably good experience of ANU.
