Reshaping your on-campus experience
Over the next 10 years, we will be reshaping and reinvigorating our campuses.
Investing in our campus infrastructure now will help to deliver an enhanced student and staff experience for the future. This investment will foster greater connectivity with industry and the community and amplify our research capabilities to ensure a strong and sustainable future for the University.
Sustainable Development Goals
Griffith University is aligned with the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and is committed to promoting sustainable cities and communities while conserving life on land, working for a more harmonious and sustainable world for all.
New CBD campus in the iconic Treasury building
Griffith has signed a contract of sale with Star Entertainment Group for the historic Treasury building in the heart of Brisbane's CBD.
From 2027, the CBD campus will offer state-of-the-art learning and teaching facilities, research, engagement, and vibrant event and exhibition spaces, for Griffith staff, students and the community to enjoy.
The building’s iconic location in the heart of the city will establish a flagship educational presence for Griffith and become the new hub for our business, law and information technology disciplines and postgraduate and executive education centre, and later Griffith English Language Institute (GELI) and Griffith College.
The CBD campus will strengthen our geographic footprint in South East Queensland and establish us as the only higher education provider with a presence in Brisbane, Logan, and the Gold Coast.
Nathan consolidation
Brisbane South (Mt Gravatt) is home to teaching and research in criminology and criminal justice, education, psychology, and other socially focused fields.
The campus has undergone several refurbishments and expansion of facilities since initially established in 1969. However, following a review that highlighted ongoing viability issues, a decision was made to consolidate Mt Gravatt into Brisbane South (Nathan) by the end of 2025.
As Brisbane South (Mt Gravatt) comes toward the end of its viability as a separate campus, staff and future students can look forward to moving across to our existing campuses.

Griffith is committed to sustainable building design and construction
Griffith University’s Design Guidelines outline sustainable building practices and standards, for renovations and new builds, to ensure that developments are environmentally sustainable and to enhance energy efficiency and environmental comfort. Key measures described in the Guidelines include optimising building orientation, using energy-efficient materials, and implementing central energy plants and monitoring systems. The guidelines encourage performance exceeding National Construction Code standards and align with Queensland’s energy efficiency requirements.
Notable examples include the 6 Green Star rated Sir Samuel Griffith Centre, powered mostly by solar and the Engineering, Technology, and Aviation building, a "living laboratory" with real-time energy monitoring.
The university has also installed nearly 3,000kW of renewable energy, with more planned by 2025.
Griffith climate action
We are committed to following IPCC recommendations through our research, learning, engagement and operational activities.
Campus development design principles
Using the same design principles for all future development we can create a better, more consistent campus experience. These are high-level principles that guide the detailed design decisions for both the short-term activation and longer-term redevelopment projects.
Our design principles ensure the numerous groups working to deliver our campus vision are striving for the shared goal of achieving a desirable future state for all those who work, study and visit the campus.
Our approach to engagement
Meaningful and genuine engagement with staff, students and other key stakeholders is the cornerstone for our projects underway.
Opportunities will be available for our campus communities to co-create our future spaces and partake in activations to test ideas before completion and for students to participate in work-integrated learning.
