)格里菲斯大学
格里菲斯大学是澳大利亚一所公立大学，它在布里斯班有五个校区，在黄金海岸有一个校区。 2004年，在校学生有2万4千人左右，教职员工约3000人。格里菲斯大学的校名是以前昆士兰州州长萨米尔·格里菲斯的名字而命名。
格里菲斯大学成立于1971年，最先成立的是Nathan校区。该校区以它独特的自然环境而闻名，它被灌木和森林包围着，只有林间小路通向外面的世界。之后，该校先后建立了Logan校区、黄金海岸校区，并在Gravatt山校区成立了师范学院，以及昆士兰音乐中心和昆士兰艺术学院。2005年以后，黄金海岸校区将成为最大的校区。
After first opening its doors, Griffith soon became famous for its modern environmental science, Asian studies and international business courses. Griffith now boasts arts, business, science and law schools and will be opening a medicine and dentistry school in 2005.
The university's motto is "get smarter", and was listed second in Queensland (after the University of Queensland) in terms of prestige by the Good Universities Guide. Recent Griffith promotions have included such famous names as Kim Phuc, Rubin Hurricane Carter, Ray Charles, Desmond Tutu and Bob Geldof who promoted centres for photojournalism, assisting the wrongly accused, educating blind children and promoting responsible ecological practices, respectively.
On 1 March 2004, like nearly all other Australian universities, the university's administration agreed to raise the tuition fees (except for nursing and education courses) by 25% and accept full-fee-paying domestic students, in line with Federal Government tertiary education reforms. Opponents of the fee-hikes suggested that Griffith University could instead save money on its advertising campaigns.
Griffith University is a member of Innovative Research Universities Australia (IRU Australia).
