 IntroductionFlinders University offers a learning environment that is innovative, supportive and offers a global perspective. On our campus of over 17,000 students, international students make up 13% of our population. University reputations are made on the quality of teaching staff. In 2008, two of our staff became the first and only overseas recipients of a Senior Fellowship from the UK’s Higher Education Academy. In 2004 and 2006, we were awarded the Prime Minister’s Award for Australian University Teacher of the Year. Flinders is located in Adelaide, a city of one million people, and the campus has spectacular, panoramic views across the city and to the ocean. Research Areas and CoursesWe have a long and successful history in gaining external funding for our dedicated areas of strategic research. Our strengthening of cooperative links with industry and other community sectors has also seen many projects of a more applied and commercial nature being funded. Examples include our collaborative development and partnership with Hamilton Laboratories resulting in a new generation sunscreen, and our work with the Australian Government’s Defence Science and Technology Organisation on The Virtual Reality Laboratory. Our strategic investment in projects reflects our university’s key research capabilities and opportunities. Over 90% of our research-active staff focus on areas such as health related fields, the environment, education, culture, the Asia Pacific Region, new science and the social sciences. Flinders is offering a range of new inspiring courses from 2009. If you are interested in studying Digital Media, the Media, International Tourism, Engineering, Environmental Health or Computer Science we have new undergraduate pathways available. For graduates we are launching a new Master of Teaching, Master of Accountancy and Master of Business Administration. Other Courses offered by Flinders include:
