Our University

At Griffith, our mission is to transform lives and add to human knowledge in a way that creates a future that benefits all. That’s because we’re more than just a university—we’re a community.

Driven by inclusivity and equity, our learning and teaching experience has support built in at every turn. And every day, our researchers are at the forefront of innovation in areas such as climate action; clean energy; violence prevention; child, youth and family wellbeing; disability and inclusion; sports performance; drug design; and Australia’s geopolitical future.

Since our founding, we have been pioneers in fields such as modern Asian studies and environmental science, have become world leaders in nursing and midwifery, tourism and more, and have been vocal champions for social justice and sustainable practices.

Much has changed in the past five decades, but our commitment to creating a brighter future is as strong as ever. That’s why our teaching and research continues to address global challenges daily and create meaningful change for our students, their families and friends, and all of society.
