“We are set to further build on this performance with a suite of new research institutes and centres, ongoing investments in state of the art facilities and in the talented people who will achieve our vision.

The Times Higher Education 2020 result caps a strong 12 months for Flinders, with improved performance across a wide range of metrics including the Good Universities Guide, both the QS and ARWU rankings and in the Commonwealth’s Student Experience Survey and Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) assessment.
