Welcome to Burgmann College
Your home away from home
Burgmann College stands apart from other residential colleges across Australia in a number of meaningful ways. Burgmann brings together a rich tapestry of traditions under one roof, fostering a spirit of inclusivity, reflection, and shared values that is uniquely one of a kind. Nestled in the heart of Canberra's CBD, students enjoy unparalleled access to the nation's most important institutions - offering a living and learning experience that simply cannot be replicated anywhere else. But what truly sets Burgmann apart is its people. With genuine commitment to building a warm, welcoming community, Burgmann strikes a rare balance between academic excellence and personal growth, encouraging students not to just exceed in their studies, but to discover who they are and who they want to become. It is this combination of heritage, location, values, and community that makes Burgmann College not just a place to live, but a place to truly belong.
