As a former employee of Griffith University, Gold Coast Campus, I cannot speak highly enough of my experience working there. The campus is not only stunningly beautiful, with its modern architecture and lush surroundings, but it also fosters a vibrant and inclusive community.
Griffith University prioritises the well-being and development of its staff, providing numerous professional growth opportunities and a supportive work environment. The leadership team is approachable and genuinely committed to creating a positive and collaborative atmosphere.
One of the standout features is the university's dedication to innovation and excellence in both teaching and research. The state-of-the-art facilities and resources available to staff and students alike make it a dynamic place to work. Additionally, the emphasis on sustainability and social responsibility is evident in the university’s initiatives and policies, which align with its mission to make a significant impact on society.
Working at Griffith University Gold Coast Campus allowed me to engage with bright minds and contribute to meaningful projects. The sense of camaraderie among colleagues and the opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking institution made my tenure truly fulfilling.
In summary, Griffith University Gold Coast Campus is an exceptional place to work, offering a blend of professional growth, supportive culture, and a commitment to excellence that sets it apart. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a rewarding career in higher education.

STEER CLEAR OF GRIFFITH ENGINEERING DEGREES!!!
I was thinking of studying engineering or industrial design, however I heard rumors that the teachers are pretty bad! My friends told me about how they just recycle content that is years old, even showing me the 3d printing info that was being taught and how it was from 2008 lol. It seems the older teachers are only just learning the new tech, however they fail to realise that the students already know more than them from their high school tech classes.

Good campus with a variety of services. Some of them are good: the library, the free computers and printers, the lecture recordings, the many cafes that, although expensive, have some... acceptable food for a campus, etc.
Areas of improvement include the way assignments are managed. Group works weigh too much on the final marks, and there's a huge focus on research, while education is only tested via multiple choice quizzes most of the times.
All in one, a pleasant experience.

Great track for athletics training. There is now a pay for use fee which is paid at either the kiosk in the grandstand or if this is closed pay at the pool.

I have enjoyed my time studying at Griffith University over the past 4 years. While there have been issues here and there I do believe that the faculty value feedback and have implemented ways to fix issues any time I have brought any up. The campus is always clean and has plenty of amenities during the week. The main issue in the past year is that the after hours study spaces have been removed and instead you have to apply for a pass and wait days to get into the Library on a weekend or after hours which is very irritating and unneccessary. The study space previously available for quiet study have been "transformed" into what looks like a tech start-up with loud pingpong tables and couches for people to sleep at, none of which is benefitting the students. Overall my experience has been good but please allow for areas for students who study academically vigorous degrees to study on campus without any delays or distractions.
