The University of Canberra is one of the leading Australian Government universities based in Canberra, ACT, Australia. It was created by the Commonwealth Government through an Act of Parliament in December 1989, from the former Canberra College of Advanced Education, founded in 1967.

The University began operations on 1st January 1990, and is a member of the Unified National System and of the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU). The University of Canberra’s mission is to provide the highest level of professional undergraduate and postgraduate education in Australia. The courses offered to international students are registered with the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS). As such, the qualifications or awards that the University conferred to International and Australian students are approved and recognised.

It educates students for approximately 30 different professions, among them information technology, management, law, accounting, engineering, teaching, modern languages, marketing, journalism, design, architecture, biomedical science, psychology, nursing, environmental science and sports studies.

University of Canberra has one of the highest employment rates for graduates in Australia. The University currently has enrolled approximately 10,000 students from some 90 countries. Its main source of international students is the Asia-Pacific region, but students also come to University of Canberra from Africa, North and South America, the Middle East and Europe.

The University has a special focus on international/global developments and is situated in Australia's national capital. University of Canberra programs have both a national and international focus, as does most academic staff in relation to their research expertise and focus.

The University of Canberra also offers a wide range of undergraduate degree courses. These include Applied Science, Communication, Education, Environmental Design, Information Sciences, Engineering, Law and Management.

One major focus of our research is in the area of commercial law and the National Centre for Corporate Law and Policy Research has quickly gained a national and international reputation. The division has two other major research centres, the Centre for Research in Public Sector Management and the National Centre for Social and Economic Modeling. Both centres have a strong national and international reputation.

Many of our staff is engaged in collaborative research with some of the leading universities and government bodies in China, Vietnam, Thailand, Hong Kong and Singapore. The University is a founding member of the Asia Pacific Economic Law Forum. Publications include numerous leading texts and articles including the production of the Australian Journal of Corporate Law, Canberra Law Review and Corporate Law Update.

Our graduates are employed in top ranked national companies as well as in Federal, State and local government departments and authorities. The excellent employment outcomes of our graduates are achieved because of the strong focus on the development of transferable skills in our academic programs that build a commitment to life-long learning, ethical behaviour and social responsibility.
