Are you ready for 2023?

Say hello to 2023 and starting a new year at ANU! 

While we still have a few weeks of summer break left, it’s time to start thinking about coming back to uni.  

Whether you’re a first-year student or a seasoned pro, having a plan to come back to uni sets you up for a successful year.  

To help you, we’ve created a back to uni checklist.  

Events & activities

Monday 13 February, 10-11am, followed by morning tea 

The ANU Commencement Address is the opening event for ANU Orientation Week at the start of the academic year and is an opportunity for all new students to hear from inspiring speakers about their uni experiences and how to get the most out of your time at ANU. It's also a wonderful opportunity to meet new friends and mingle with the whole ANU community! 

The 2023 keynote will be delivered by ANU alumnus Kieran Pender, a senior lawyer at the Human Rights Law Centre and an honorary lecturer at the ANU College of Law.
