The ATN’s stated aim is to help secure Australia’s reputation as a smart country, and contribute to its social and economic wealth, while championing the principles of access and equity that have ensured its members are the universities of first choice for students. All of ATN's universities are featured in the The Times Higher Education Supplement World University Rankings.
