About the ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences We set national and international standards in research, education and community engagement across the humanities, creative arts, languages and social sciences.

Our unique location in Canberra creates an enriched teaching and research environment, giving our researchers and students access to the nation’s political, cultural and collecting institutions and government departments.

Our researchers shape debates and public policy through consultations, media outreach and through their research. Our disciplines rank highly against other universities globally, and most achieve rankings of above (or well above) world standard in the Excellence in Research Australia rankings by the Australian Research Council.

About the ANU College of Asia and the PacificWe are home to the largest number of regional experts and specialist academic programs in the English-speaking world, and play a vital role informing public policy and Australia’s intellectual engagement with the societies, cultures and economies of Asia and the Pacific.

Our education programs provide a global perspective on the biggest issues facing society and will equip you with the skills you need to become an international citizen.

Several disciplines we teach are unique within Australia – like international Security Studies – and we also teach more than half of Australia’s less commonly learned languages, among them Thai, Hindi, Sanskrit, Vietnamese, Burmese and Tetum.

Our locationIt’s not just about who we are, it’s about where we are. As Australia’s national university, our deep engagement with governments, diplomatic missions and international institutions means we provide you with a window from Australia out into the world.

Studying in Canberra – the centre of Australian politics and policy development – presents you with opportunities to step outside the classroom and put theory into practice. Where else could you go on an excursion to the National Archives to view formerly ‘Top Secret’ government documents, participate in a war-game simulation run by the former Chief of the Australian Defence Force, ask Australia’s former Foreign Minister about their role in the development of the UN peace plan for Cambodia or observe part of the consultation process for Australia’s next Defence White Paper?

Our national capital location provides access to major national institutions including Australian Parliament House, national centres of research, international organisations, over 80 diplomatic missions and premier cultural institutions such as the Australian War Memorial, Australian National Gallery, High Court of Australia, National Film and Sound Archives and the National Museum.

The ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences and the ANU College of Asia and the Pacific are two colleges within the University, both with an international reputation for the standard of their education and engagement with the community.

Although we are distinctive in many ways, we also possess crucial similarities, broadly covering disciplines that fall into a category known as HASS – humanities, arts and social sciences. Together we offer students a complementary array of undergraduate programs.

** The Group of Eight is a coalition of well respected Australian universities whose research tends to be highly intensive and whose education spans a broad spectrum of disciplines.

ANU has exclusive rights to place six interns a year in United States Congress as part of the Washington Internship Program. We are also the only university where you can intern in Australian Parliament House.

Our culture of ground-breaking research is supported by an average student to staff ratio of 10:1 (the best among the Group of Eight**). This allows our students to work closely with researchers who are addressing some of the biggest challenges of our time.

Diverse workshops in the ANU School of Art, from glass to video animation, all offered within our Bachelor of Visual Arts or Bachelor of Design degrees, or in a Flexible Double Degree combination.

The number of institutions of national significance Canberra is home to, including Parliament House, the National Museum of Australia, the National Archives of Australia and the Australian War Memorial.

The number of Commonwealth Departments in Canberra, the centre of Australian politics and policy development. Among them are Treasury, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Department of Defence.

We offer more languages than any other Australian university – 28 in all – and we’re the only university in the country to offer Persian, Turkish, Sanskrit, Mongolian, Tetum.

ANU School of Music has a rich history, having been established just over half a century ago.

The number of diplomatic missions (embassies and high commissions) from around the world that Canberra accommodates. They facilitate relationships between their country and the Australian Government.

In a globalised world with a rapidly evolving job market, it’s important that students are able to choose from a range of disciplines and degree structures to suit their interests, strengths and career goals. At ANU, you can choose from 750 different combinations in our Flexible Double Degree program.


O P P O R T U N I T I E S A B O U N D

Our students come from all over the country and the world. They’re a diverse group but share important characteristics: they are adventurous, curious and creative. They are explorers of the world. For this reason, we encourage our students to broaden their horizons and gain unique experiences – some overseas, some closer to home.

We lead the University in international student mobility – 96% of our graduating cohort have taken a global study option.

Washington Internship - walk the corridors of power

Our Washington Internship program offers six-week placements with the United States Congress, where you can rub shoulders with some of the most powerful people in American politics.

This internship offers you the opportunity to develop a strong background in American politics and the opportunity to experience political life in Washington DC. Interns work in either the office of a member of Congress or the office of a congressional committee.

Tour and studyStudents across a range of our programs have the opportunity to travel as part of their degree. This could include undertaking an immersive in-country experience, spending a semester at one of our partner universities or doing an intensive language course – in-country – during one of the summer or winter breaks.

Immersive in-country experience

Trade your seat in the classroom for a village hut in the mountains of Myanmar, a tearoom in Japan, or among palm trees in Hawaii.

You might visit the great archaeological sites of Italy, Greece or Turkey, live in a rice-farming village in Vietnam, or encounter endangered primates in Cambodia. All the while you’ll earn credit towards your degree.

You’ll take preparatory classes at ANU beforehand, then spend four to six weeks overseas.

Spend a semester overseas

Spend a semester at one of our partner universities located in 17 countries across the globe and get credit towards your degree. An exchange is the best way for you to experience cultural and language immersion.

In-country language courses

Travel during the summer and winter breaks with an intensive language course in Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand or India.

Year in Asia

The Year in Asia program can take you to China, Korea, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand or Vietnam. The 12 months is added to the length of your degree, building in the ability to have a year in-country where you can truly explore your interests.

You will graduate with a Bachelor of Asia Pacific Studies (Year in Asia), a degree that formally recognises your overseas expertise.

Fieldwork

Fieldwork opportunities are available for students studying archaeology and anthropology wishing to gain in-country experience and hone their exploratory research skills.

For four weeks in the winter break you could live in Indonesia in a village homestay, learn Indonesian, work in a team with Indonesian students, learn ethnographic methods and data analysis, and help the community to apply for development assistance and complete community projects.

Alternatively, you could survey the historic houses of Ribchester in the UK or, if you’d prefer to stay in Australia, you could attend an archaeological dig in Tasmania at the Triabunna Barracks.

They’re just a few of the many study tour and fieldwork opportunities available, all of them with staff instruction and for academic course credit.

Grants and scholarshipsANU Travel Grants help students participate in courses not available at ANU but offered at other leading universities around the world. These experiences also allow our students to make new friends, form networks and immerse themselves in other cultures.

A variety of scholarships can also help you get overseas during your studies.

The University and both Colleges offer a range of scholarships of up to $20,000 per year.

Lucy McFarlane My Year in China

“My ‘Year in China’ was exceptional. The in-country language study delivered incomparable progress in my Mandarin. Beyond the classroom, traveling from the cosmopolitan cities of the east to China’s western edges was exhilarating and gave me a deeper regional understanding. I floated down the exquisite Yulong River in southern Guangxi, froze at the ice sculptures in north-eastern Harbin, drove the rocky Karakoram Highway in Xinjiang and ended up Mt Everest base camp in Tibet. The year abroad, filled with new friends, good food, and valuable work experience, enabled me to envision a life and career in China.”

Degrees for High AchieversOur Colleges are places where students come to be challenged. If you want to test your academic skill, your work ethic and develop your natural talent, we have courses especially for you.

The Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) (PhB)

This program is an innovative, research-focused undergraduate degree. It’s the only program of its kind where disciplinary knowledge is enriched by a deep regional understanding of Asia and the Pacific.

You’ll take advanced research study courses, leading to an Honours year, with the opportunity to explore your interests in a diverse range of disciplines including history, international relations, gender, culture, strategic studies, literature, politics, linguistics, anthropology, law and regulation, archaeology and economics.

You’ll even get the flexibility to structure the degree in a way that suits you (in consultation with your academic advisor).

The Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics (BPPE)

The BPPE is a well-known and well-established degree throughout the world.

In the early stages you’ll gain an equal grounding in each of the three disciplines; as you progress, you can decide which area to focus on.

We offer a suite of programs that are unique and distinctive to give you an edge when you graduate. These include the world-renowned Flexible Double DegreesTM and our Degrees for High Achievers.

Matthew Jacob Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics, Tuckwell Scholarship recipient

The Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics (BPPE) was one of the main reasons behind Matthew’s decision to come to ANU, as well as the scholarship and opportunity to move away from his hometown in Sydney.

“I had never heard about the BPPE until a friend of mine introduced me to it, and after I did some research I realised it was exactly what I wanted,” says Matthew.

“It’s unique in the way it’s taught as three disciplines working together, which is best embodied in the seminar classes, where the disciplines are all meshed together in one synchronised way as opposed to being taught separately. It’s surprised me how much the subjects overlap and work together. The BPPE gives me the flexibility to approach problems from different aspects that you wouldn’t normally study if you were studying just economics, or just politics.”

Catherine Perry Bachelor of Philosophy (PhB)

“From a young age, I have been fascinated by learning Asian languages. The Bachelor of Philosophy (PhB) program at ANU immediately jumped out at me, as it is the only degree of its kind in Australia that allows complete flexibility with subject choices. I was drawn to the program upon discovering that PhB students would be able to do one-on-one projects with lecturers on subjects of their choice.

I have explored projects that focus on issues from banking in China to the importance of Zen Buddhism in the way of the Samurai.

The PhB has offered me so many opportunities to extend myself, and to discover where my true interests lie. The degree has helped me confirm my aspiration to work in Asia, where I hope to combine my interests in both language and business.”

Janis LejinsBachelor of Visual Arts (Hons)

For his Visual Arts Honours, Janis Lejins created an artwork that comprised columns of light which changed colour based on data from computer programs he’d written. Each column represented a different stream of data – from the content of tweets, porn searches or Instagram photos. Janis explains, “It’s about the relationships we have in an increasingly networked world to this sea of intangible data which is increasingly defining who we are and how we engage with things.”

When he came to ANU art school, he says, “I thought I’d grow up and want to be a photojournalist.”

At ANU, Janis found many opportunities to work outside of his field. From becoming well-trained in classical photography in his first year, he went on to take physical computing, electives in sculpture, print media and painting. These introduced him to a world of possibilities.

Matthew MusgraveBachelor of Criminology. Graduated in December 2015 and now works for ACT Corrective Services’ Throughcare Unit, a prisoner reintegration initiative.

“I began with a double degree in Criminology and Psychology and did this purely for efficiency. One degree in three years, or two degrees in four years. The latter seemed like the way to go. However it wasn’t until I started the courses that I realised that criminology absolutely fascinated me.

“I think I was always drawn to the sociological approach to academics, over the scientific methods utilised in psychology. I thoroughly enjoyed psychology, however as my fellow students could attest, I wasn’t very good at it, so I dropped it and stuck with crime.

“I also had the opportunity in a number of courses to partake in tours of a police station, the ACT Magistrate’s court, the Alexander Maconochie Centre and the Goulbourn Supermax prison.

“I surprisingly enjoyed the academic side of uni as much as the social. The biggest positive to the criminology degree over all the other courses was the calibre of the lecturers and their ability to make every course feel like it was tailored and directed to me as an individual.

“The smaller class sizes certainly helped, I will admit, but I honestly believe that for those individuals that really made the effort, you could see the tutors and lecturers bend over backwards to make your time enjoyable.

“Outside of the classroom I had the privilege of creating, formalising and running the ANU Criminology Society. I was lucky enough to have an incredibly supportive team around me when we did that with a great deal of success. This led to a phenomenal opportunity with the ANU Cybercrime Observatory where a few of us were able to work with the Office of the Children’s E-Safety Commissioner on an academic online child safety report. Definitely a highlight of my time at ANU.”

Jessica WatBachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics

Second-year student Jessica Wat wasn’t sure initially what she wanted to do straight out of high school. But she knew generally what she was interested in, and describes herself as a “law/humanities kid”.

Jessica learned about the Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics degree and contemplated the Oxford University course but ultimately applied to ANU. She said she felt that the quality of education the ANU offered would be “just as good”.

“I first heard about the Oxford PPE and then I found out that ANU offers it as well. And I thought, that is amazingly perfect because it’s in Australia and it’s in Canberra, which is really helpful because you’re in a massive political hub.”

She adds, “Choosing this degree was very much my own decision. And so was coming to ANU. When you’re in high school you feel a bit controlled, and what I wanted with my university education was to have new experiences, to really embrace being young and take control of my own life.”


Harriet Roberts Bachelor of Asian Studies

“I was always interested in the law and, having studied Indonesian language throughout high school, I was looking for a way to combine these two interests. I came across the ANU Flexible Double Degree program in Year 12 and discovered that a double degree in Asian Studies and Law was the best way to pursue both of my passions.

A highlight of my CAP degree thus far has been undertaking a field course on the Thai-Myanmar border in 2015. This course centred around three main issues – human trafficking and transnational crime, education in Thailand and Myanmar, and the role of NGOs in the region. It was an eye-opening and truly rewarding experience, which allowed me to interact with a range of stakeholders - from government officials to victims of exploitation.

This course allowed me to combine my passions for law and the Asia Pacific through writing a research paper on human trafficking law in Thailand. I hope to intern in South East Asia at an NGO focused on human trafficking after a semester studying abroad in Indonesia.

Studying a CAP degree at ANU has provided me with vital skills for my future career. I’ve had the opportunity to study Indonesian and Thai language, and have vastly improved both my linguistic and cultural fluency.

The range of overseas mobility programs that CAP offers such as field courses and exchange programs will also give me highly-regarded practical experience working and living in the Asia and the Pacific region.”

From day one PhB students work with an academic advisor to craft a program structure that allows focused, in-depth research on the topics they’re passionate about.

Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) – Arts and Social Sciences

ATAR: 99 Duration: 4 years CRICOS Code: 048427K

The Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) (PhB) is an exciting research-focused degree at ANU. It is an integrated program leading to an Honours award. It is designed for intellectually-ambitious students who aspire to study at the highest level. Every student receives intensive individual attention from an academic advisor.

The PhB is flexible in its structure with your program determined each year in collaboration with your academic advisor. One quarter of your studies in the first three years will consist of individually-tailored advanced studies courses specifically designed to provide you with a strong base in research. In these courses, you might do a reading course or literature review with an academic. In the fourth year you will undertake an Honours year centred around one Arts discipline.

A strict quota will apply to enrolments in this degree program. A wide range of scholarships is available to potential applicants. If you choose to undertake study abroad, you might be eligible to apply for a travel grant of up to $1,500.

Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) – Asia and the Pacific

AJ AmericaBachelor of Philosophy (Hons)/Diploma of Languages

The Bachelor of Philosophy is by no means your average degree. As third-year PhB student AJ America can attest, you can exercise a high level of autonomy within it and work closely with lecturers.

In Year 12, AJ took the HSC History Extension course, which she describes as a very self-directed research project.

“I really enjoyed the process of research and the process of letting a project take shape over a few months rather than just having a set essay question that you respond to in the three weeks that you have to write the paper,” AJ says. “The opportunity to keep doing that regularly was really enticing.”

For her first research project at ANU, AJ worked alongside an academic whose books she had admired – historian Angela Woollacott.

“It was my second year of university and I was sitting in her office getting to discuss my work every week and chat to her about history. Eighteen months earlier, I’d been reading her books when I was in high school,” AJ enthuses.

“I’ve also been privileged to work with Frank Bongiorno this semester and Alex Cook over a couple of semesters.”

AJ is currently working on a research project about Australian Holocaust education in Australia and another on Jewry in the Weimar republic. While her projects are solo endeavours, she has felt far from isolated from her peers. She spoke about first-year seminar, which she did with her fellow PhB students.

“Often, class discussions would kind of continue in the hallway after class until it was moved to the bar slowly,” she smiles. “We ended up with a really great community of PhB arts students.”

“We still have coffee together and talk about our projects. Having those friends from first year seminar has been really valuable.”

Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics


The Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics is an elite degree that combines the study of politics, philosophy and economics, and the manner in which they are increasingly being integrated to enhance our understanding and evaluation of individual and group behaviour. Graduates of this degree will be recognised for exceptional critical and conceptual thinking and problem solving skills. In politics, you will develop your understanding of the nature of institutional arrangements, the manner in which decisions are made and their effects on people throughout the world. The philosophy component of the degree will teach you to analyse issues and use ethical principles to evaluate human conduct and social institutions. By studying economics you will learn how consumers, firms, and governments make decisions and how these decisions determine the allocation of resources.

Our Integrative Seminar Series brings together the three disciplines to illuminate topics of pressing human concern. The degree has a strong international component linking with international relations and development studies and you may have the opportunity to engage with other leading international universities. The Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics may also be studied as a Vertical Double Degree™ with the Juris Doctor.

Oliver Friedmann Bachelor of Philosophy (Hons) – Asian Studies

“I have changed my degree four times and been to two different universities. But this journey has given me a fantastic appreciation for what one should look for in a degree.

The PhB has become one of the most profound and formative educational experiences I have ever engaged with. The PhB allows me to actively craft my educational experience, which is of particular importance to me. I have been able to choose subjects freely and engage with a number of different academic communities. I have developed fantastic relationships with academics from all over the world and their mentorship has been invaluable. Most of the subjects I have undertaken involve significant independence. My projects have ranged from developing a youth media platform that tackles digital disruption with a team who currently runs one of the largest academic Southeast Asian-focused blogs in the world, to writing a long form essay on New Age spirituality and indigenous appropriation with a culture and literature specialist who’s current research focuses on yoga. I cannot understate how important this mentorship has been. The staff at ANU are progressive, inspiring and always seem to have time for young students among their very busy schedules.

I made my way into the Asian Studies stream from a politics and economics program because I wanted to engage specifically with area studies of some kind. It is great to learn political, social and economic theory, but it is even better if you can apply that knowledge to an area of the world that is becoming more and more important to us as Australians. What I found, however, was that Asian Studies at ANU offers so much more than just applicable knowledge. The Asian studies classrooms are dynamic and each course is nuanced. I have been part of a course that developed an Asian-focused student publication called Monsoon. I have studied Buddhist Philosophy. I have taken courses in both Thailand and Burma, and am looking forward to engaging with many more overseas and alternative study environments over the next few years.

The PhB has given me opportunities that I would not have received anywhere else. I am looking forward to the next few years, which I’m sure will contain more overseas experience, more language learning and more engagement with digital disruption in Asia and the wider world.”

HonoursIf you’ve done well in your Bachelor degree, you can consider adding an Honours year. This extra year of full-time study includes coursework, seminars and a research thesis focusing on one of your majors. To be eligible for Honours, you must have achieved a weighted mark of at least 70 per cent, calculated from 36 units of courses in your cognate major with the highest marks.

An Honours degree with a grade of at least 2nd class (2A) is the most direct pathway into a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), and will help you get into other graduate degrees such as Masters programs in the future.

The structure of Honours in each area varies but in all programs a designated weighting is allocated to both coursework and research thesis components. With some exceptions – notably in practice-based areas – courses commonly involve 24 units of advanced level coursework courses and a 50% (18 – 20,000 words) or above weighted thesis.

Honours programs are comprised of 48 units and are normally taken over a two-semester period. With approval, Honours may be taken part time over four semesters.

Enjoy your independenceMany students come to ANU from other states and other countries. They come because of the University’s reputation, but also to gain a sense of freedom and learn about themselves in a new environment.

In Canberra, you’ll learn about yourself in ways that you wouldn’t get if you studied in your home city.

Take the stress out of living away from home At ANU, we’ve made living away from home easy for you. We guarantee a bed on campus to all of our first-year students moving from outside of the ACT or Australia. You might even qualify for a relocation grant to help you move.

For more details visit: rcc.anu.edu.au/guarantee.php

For other students, ANU will assist in finding you a place to live plus if you choose a catered option we’ll do the cooking for you.

We have fantastic facilities including study and meeting spaces, movie rooms, soundproof music practice rooms, and in some cases a rooftop garden and free secure bike storage (don’t forget so many of Canberra’s most interesting sights and institutions are within cycling distance of the campus).

Get the Canberra advantageIf you’re interested in languages, working overseas, politics, internships (and more) – Canberra is the place to be!

You’ll be within easy reach (sometimes walking distance) of major Australian cultural institutions, along with their archives for teaching, learning and research. Take for example the National Gallery of Australia – the ANU School of Art teaches there.

You’ll also be close to The National Archives, The Australian War Memorial, The National Museum of Australia, The National Library of Australia, The National Gallery of Australia, and The National Portrait Gallery.

In addition, you will have access to major national institutions including Australian Parliament House, national centres of research, international organisations and over 80 diplomatic missions.

Live in a great student cityCanberra has been named among the top 20 cities for students in the world by the 2016 QS Best Student Cities report.

The main campus (where the Colleges are located) is situated on 145 hectares of beautifully maintained parklands right in the Canberra city centre. There are more than 5,000 beds on campus (and more to come very soon), making it easy to join this welcoming community of students right in the middle of Australia’s capital city.
