Mt Stromlo Students Open Day 2026 🔭⭐️ When: 22nd of July, buses leave main campus at 9:30, and return at 4:30.
Where; Mt Stromlo, Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics
What; This is a free event for all ANU students and ANU undergraduate students - specifically targeted at those who are considering doing research through the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics.
It’s going to be a very general event, with speakers including the Nobel prize winner, Brian Schmidt, and the Chief Scientist of the Square Kilometre Array, Naomi McClure-Griffiths as well as other academics and researchers.

We will also have 3-minute student talks so students can see what researching at Stromlo looks like. Attendees will get the chance to talk with the students as well, and also with many of the Faculty members up at Mt Stromlo, and potentially discuss research projects and options for your research both in your undergraduate and in Honours/Masters/PhDs.

Importantly, there will be a FREE BARBECUE as well as a FREE BUS chartered from main campus to Mt Stromlo, and back afterwards, for all students to attend.

So, if you are interested at all in researching Astronomy, Astrophysics, Instrumentation or Technology, please come along to the students open day!!
