Who is building, managing and decommissioning our technology-enabled future?#

This question is at the heart of our mission, and our way in is cybernetics. We are committed to helping Australia and Australians navigate major societal transformations, including those that involve new and emerging technologies.

A non-traditional school based in the College of Engineering, Computing and Cybernetics at the Australian National University, we are making space for different futures. Futures that consider the environment, the people within it, and how technology can help, rather than harm. Futures that are safe, sustainable and responsible.

The School of Cybernetics was founded by Distinguished Professor Genevieve Bell. She served as the inaugural Director 2021-2023 and was appointed as the ANU Vice-Chancellor in 2024.
