The University’s Mission and Strategic Priorities Mission. “As Australia’s first private university, Bond University seeks to be recognised internationally as a leading independent university, imbued with a spirit to innovate, a commitment to influence and a dedication to inspire tomorrow’s professionals who share a personalised and transformational student experience”. Bond University’s mission statement captures our unique function within the Australian higher education sector. Bond is Australia’s only truly private, non-profit and independent university. The distinctive educational experience at Bond is characterised by a commitment to high-quality, personalised teaching, small class sizes, high levels of interaction between our students and academic staff, a nurturing and inspiring campus and extra-curricular experience designed to holistically develop tomorrow’s leaders.
