  • Highlights

    Studying in the middle of a capital city like Canberra is a special experience. The politics, international environment, and countless resources provide many opportunities to delve below the surface of the country's culture. The fact that Australian National University (ANU) is a short walk or bike-ride away from the center of the city only adds to your opportunities to explore.
    Students interested in courses on international relations, economics, environmental science, and the fine arts will find particularly challenging and enlightening course offerings. A world-renowned faculty in Southeast Asian Studies teaches many courses in the languages and cultures of the region. Of course, with more than 10,000 students you'll find ANU to be a comprehensive university that offers flexibility in taking courses across the institution.

    Outside of the classroom, the residential nature of ANU, with many students in on-campus accommodation, provides a wonderful opportunity for integration with Australian and other international students.
