On May 15, 1989, Bond University welcomed its first cohort of 322 students at its brand new, state-of-the-art campus on Queensland’s Gold Coast. Modelled on the traditions of the world’s most elite educational institutions, the vision for Australia’s first private, not-for-profit university was to provide an exclusive educational experience of the highest international standards, under the tutelage of the country’s leading academics.

Bond believe education goes beyond the classroom. The University's unique Beyond Bond program will expand the students' horizons with internships, global volunteering programs, international competitions, industry conferences, study tours, community service and much, much more.

At Bond, students will not become just another member in the background. Students are always visible. The lecturers will know you, your tutors will invest time in you, so your learning will get the attention it deserves. It’s what sets the University apart. An individual approach to learning that makes Bond University different from the rest. And it’s why Bond produce graduates who get noticed above others.

Bond students don’t get lost in the crowd. They get personal attention. They’re visible. They stand out. Now and after they graduate.
