CAR welcomes Visiting Fellows and PhD studentsThe ANU is proud of its standard of research and the people it attracts to work, study and visit here. In Archaeology, we are particularly lucky to have a number of Visiting Fellows in residence who bring with them their reputations and expertise and generously share their time and knowledge with our staff and students. We also have a number of short-term visitors and guest lecturers who also come to collaborate and keep the various archaeological debates lively on campus.
Additionally, the University structure encourages a wide spectrum of interdisciplinary research and supervision e.g. through cognate Research Centres and Departments of Linguistics, Anthropology, Human Geography, the John Curtin Medical School, and Earth Sciences, both in the Faculties and Research Schools

CAR has national research links and collaboration with ANSTO, CSIRO, AIATSIS and the National Museum of Australia, most Universities in Australia, and international links with UNESCO projects, the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) and PAGES, research centres at the Universities of Auckland,Colorado, Oxford, Cambridge, Hawaii, and National Museums throughout the Indo-Pacific, such as the Vanuato National Museum.
Postgraduate students based either in the Department of Archaeology and Natural History or the School of Archaeology and Anthropology join approximately 2827 graduate students at the ANU, over 30% of whom are international graduates. They form the largest body of graduate students in archaeology and palaeoanthropology in Australasia. Why not consider joining us?
