      The Australian Centre for Indigenous History (ACIH) was established within the ANU School of History, to "raise the profile of the study of Indigenous history through internationally competitive scholarship", among other aims. The centre was officially launched on 28 March 2003, with Senator Aden Ridgeway officiating. Ann McGrath was the founding director, and stayed at the helm until 2019, when Lawrence Bamblett and Maria Nugent were appointed co-directors. Gordon Briscoe was one of two inaugural research fellows at ACIH.


      ANU College of Asia and the Pacific


      The ANU College of Asia and the Pacific is a specialist centre of Asian and Pacific studies and languages. The College is home to three academic schools: the Crawford School of Public Policy, a research intensive public policy school; the School of Culture History and Language, the nation's centre dedicated to investigating and learning with and about the people, languages, and lands of Asia and the Pacific; and Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs, Australia's foremost collection of expertise in the politics and international affairs of Asia and the Pacific.
      The college also houses the Australian Centre on China in the World (CIW), the Regulatory Institutions Network (RegNet) and the CSCAP Australia.
      The College is affiliated with Columbia University's Weatherhead East Asian Institute and Indiana University's Pan Asia Institute.

      The ANU College of Engineering, Computing & Cybernetics is divided into three Schools; School of Engineering, School of Computing and School of Cybernetics. ANU is home to the National Computational Infrastructure National Facility and was a co-founder of NICTA, which was the main information and communications technology research centre in Australia until 2016. At that stage NICTA was merged with CSIRO to form Data 61, a Research Business Unit.


      ANU College of Law



      The ANU College of Law, established in 1960, conducts legal research and teaching, with centres dedicated to commercial law, international law, public law and environmental law. It is the 7th oldest of Australia's 36 law schools.

      = Research School of Physics

      =
      The ANU Research School of Physics focuses primarily on research into materials science and engineering; lasers, nonlinear optics and photonics; nanotechnology and mesoscopic physics; physics of atoms, molecules and the nucleus; plasma physics and surface science; physics and the environment. Under the direction of Mark Oliphant, nuclear physics was one of the university's most notable early research priorities, leading to the construction of a 500 megajoule homopolar generator and a 7.7 megaelectronvolts cyclotron in the 1950s.

      Australian National Institute for Public Policy


      In May 2010, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd announced a $111.7 million commitment to the development by ANU of a new Australian National Institute for Public Policy. The new National Institute is intended to centralize public policy expertise. A good portion of the funds ($53.1 million) were earmarked for building and developing the previously announced Australian Centre on China in the World, which is one of three specialist centres along with the National Security College and the Australia and New Zealand School of Government to be specifically incorporated under the umbrella of the National Institute. $19.8 million is set aside to create a joint building for the other two centres, with a further $17.3 million expressly dedicated to the National Security College.
