Kioloa Coastal Campus

Please note: The operational model for the Kioloa Coastal Campus has changed. Please review the Conditions to understand the new operational model.

The Kioloa Coastal Campus (KCC) is located on the NSW south Coast and is one of the ANU’s satellite sites.  Use of the KCC is in line with the intent of the deed of gift that was created when the Edith and Joy London Foundation donated the property to the University.

The Kioloa Coastal Campus offers a range of teaching facilities and accommodation options and can be utilised for teaching, research, meetings, conferences, writing, and workshops.

The campus is available to both internal and external groups with internal groups being heavily subsidised.

Kioloa Coastal Campus is a great place to learn, teach, write and conduct research in a relaxed yet energizing environment away from busy campus life. Find out more about how the research station can help meet your needs, visit the Campus homepage.
