The Australian National University (ANU) is a public research university and member of the Group of Eight, located in Canberra, the capital of Australia. Its main campus in Acton encompasses seven teaching and research colleges, in addition to several national academies and institutes.[14]
Established in 1946, ANU is the only university to have been created by the Parliament of Australia.[a] It traces its origins to Canberra University College, which was established in 1929 and was integrated into ANU in 1960.[15] ANU enrols 13,329 undergraduate and 11,021 postgraduate students and employs 4,517 staff.[16] The university's endowment stood at A$1.8 billion as of 2018.[17]
ANU counts six Nobel laureates and 49 Rhodes scholars[18] among its faculty and alumni.[19] The university has educated two prime ministers and more than a dozen current heads of government departments of Australia. The latest releases of ANU's scholarly publications are held through ANU Press online.[20]
