An education trailblazer

A national leader in rural and remote health, Flinders delivers first-class medical, nursing and allied health education across regional South Australia and Northern Territory, including the NT’s Doctor of Medicine.

Our pioneering approach to creativity and enterprise means every student has access to our award-winning Flinders New Venture Institute, ranked among the top university business accelerators in the world.

Solving wicked problems

Flinders is Australia’s fastest growing research university, with our excellence reflected in 140% growth in external funding in the past five years.

Our research strengths cover a wide range of fields, from biomedical and clinical sciences, to defence, engineering, nursing, culture, policy and society, archaeology, health and human behaviour, molecular technology, water, and environment.

Brave and innovative

At Flinders, our intrepid approach to collaboration sets us apart. It’s why we’re the first university in Australia to form a partnership with a US Navy research centre.

Globally, we have over 100 partner institutions across 33 countries, and our 130,000 alumni are driving social and economic advances worldwide.

We are, as they say, fearless.
