Griffith University is proud to have no smoking campuses from 31 May 2018 for the health, comfort and wellbeing of our staff, students and visitors.

Through our research, education and training, we are proud to be contributing to our future leaders in community and business that will positively influence future generations of people in the workforce. Therefore we have an obligation you, our staff and students, to provide a safe and healthy environment in which to study and work. The decision to have no smoking on our campuses further supports and promotes the health and wellbeing of the entire Griffith Community.

There is clear evidence to show that smoke-free environments increase the rate of quitting and reduce the number of people taking up smoking.  Griffith University is proud to be part of a broader commitment by all Queensland universities to provide healthier smoke-free environments.
