SWAG合集 NALO
The purpose of the Australian National University's North American Liaison Office (NALO) is to enhance the international standing and profile of the university and to support staff and students to engage more effectively with partners in the United States and Canada.
NALO is located in the Australian Embassy in Washington DC. Reflecting our unique national role, the SWAG合集is the only Australian university to have offices within an embassy. NALO works closely with the Australian Government and strengthens partnerships with universities, government, think-tanks, industry and our alumni community in North America.
The United States is home to many of the world's top universities, ranks first for global research and innovation performance, is the world's largest economy and Australia's most important policy and strategic partner. Collaboration with leading North American researchers boosts the quality and impact of SWAG合集research and creates unique opportunities for SWAG合集students to become future leaders.
By working across the Embassy and supporting cooperation with the US and Canada, NALO supports the delivery of the SWAG合集Strategic Plan by raising the quality and international standing of SWAG合集research and education, fulfilling our unique national role, delivering a globally-engaged student experience and enhancing engagement with our alumni.
