The Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs is a constituent of the College of Asia and the Pacific at the Australian National University. The study of the Pacific was formerly a research focus of the Research School of Pacific (and Asian) Studies, founded in 1946 at the Australian National University.^[1] Following a University restructure in 2009, the Research School was amalgamated with the Faculty of Asian Studies and renamed the College of Asia and the Pacific (CAP).^[2]^[3] The disciplines and units of the College were distributed among four Schools:

Crawford School of Public Policy
School of Asia and Pacific Affairs
School of Regulation and Global Governance
School of Culture History & Language

In 2015, the School of Asia Pacific Affairs, was renamed Coral Bell School of Asia and Pacific Affairs in honour of Coral Bell, a leading Australian scholar of international politics.^[4]
