Congratulations to our Class of 2026 graduates!

This week, we proudly celebrated our PhD scholars and postgraduate students at the RegNet graduation event. It has been an honour to witness their dedication, curiosity and perseverance throughout their studies, and we are proud of all they have achieved.

Our graduates have engaged with complex global challenges, pushed the boundaries of knowledge and contributed to meaningful research across a wide range of topics. The skills and connections they have developed at RegNet and ANU will provide a strong foundation for the next steps in their careers and personal journeys. We look forward to seeing the positive impact they will make in their fields and communities.
