Welcome Griffith University!

Welcome Griffith University!

The Southport State High Alliance gladly welcomes it’s newest Platinum Partner, Griffith University.

In 1971, Griffith was created to be a new kind of university—one that offered new degrees in progressive fields such as Asian studies and environmental science. At the time, these study areas were revolutionary—today, they’re more important than ever.

Since then, they’ve grown into a comprehensive, research-intensive university, ranking in the top 5% of universities worldwide. Their teaching and research spans five campuses in South East Queensland and all disciplines, while their network of more than 120,000 graduates extends around the world.

Griffith continues the progressive traditions of its namesake, Sir Samuel Walker Griffith, who was twice the Premier of Queensland, the first Chief Justice of the High Court of Australia, and the principal author of the Australian Constitution.
