About Working at ANU
The Australian National University is the only Australian university established by an Act of Federal Parliament, in 1946, and is 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 at Mt Stromlo Observatory (west of Canberra); Siding Spring Observatory (near Coonabarabran, western New South Wales (NSW); North Australia Research Unit (Darwin, Northern Territory); Kioloa (coastal campus near Bawley Point, on the NSW South Coast).
The University was established with a mission to become Australia’s centre for world-class research and in September 2004 an independent quality review found almost 30 per cent of ANU research was in the top five per cent worldwide.
