- Australian National University
Established by Act of the Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia in 1946, The Australian National University was the country's only full-time research university. It then had no undergraduate teaching responsibilities. Its mandate was to undertake postgraduate research and study both generally and in relation to subjects of national importance. Since then, the University's character had developed and there have been progressive additions to its range of activities. Amalgamation with the Canberra University College in 1960 added undergraduate teaching. The role of The Faculties, which undertake the undergraduate teaching task as well as engaging in post-graduate training and research, is akin to that of the remainder of Australian universities, involving both teaching and research. Amalgamation in 1992 with the Canberra Institute of the Arts, comprising the Canberra School of Art and the Canberra School of Music, brought music and art teaching and practice into the range of the teaching activities.
