The university was formally founded in 1971 and opened its doors in 1975 to 451 students in four schools: Australian Environmental Studies, Humanities, Modern Asian Studies and Science. The University started with its Nathan campus, and several of its campuses are distinctive for their nature based settings within large urban agglomerations. The clusters of buildings, sports facilities, bushland reserves and recreational areas are connected by integrated networks of walking paths. The university was distinguished by its 'problem based' rather than disciplinary approach to course design and research. The university now has a full suite of programs including arts, education, medicine, dentistry, engineering, business, science, and law. [1]

The University is named after the former Premier of Queensland, and High Court of Australia judge, Sir Samuel Griffith. who was also the principal author of the Australian constitution. Recent marketing projects have involved famous people including Kim Phuc, Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, Ray Charles, and Bob Geldof. They were promoting centres for photojournalism arts, assisting the wrongly accused, educating children with a visual impairment and promoting responsible ecological practices, respectively. [1]
