  2. ANU is a strategic endowment for the nation. • ANU is an education-intensive research institute of international distinction. Research profile drives academic profile. • Our academic profile is driven by what is important for Australia and its place in the world: the issues, topics and disciplines that are in the long-term national interest. • Our standards – in research and education – are consistent with the highest in the world.

  3. We improve our standards through rigorous international benchmarking with selected peer universities. • We use our scale, our campus and our characteristics to maximise advantage to staff and students. • We enhance our scope through selective international partnerships and meet our commitment to the nation through selective national partnerships. • Student growth will be at postgraduate level (to 50% of the student profile) with Doctoral students comprising 25%.
