Vice-Chancellor’s Courses
The VC’s Courses ran between 2009 and 2024 and have now been retired. With the introduction of the ANU Graduate Attributes into the 2025 curriculum, the AATD [ANU (Graduate) Attribute - Transdisciplinary] subject area replaces the VCUG code, and have been brought under the umbrella of the SoCIETIE Initiative.
