Griffith University supports the Sustainable Development Goals
This ARC Discovery project is motivated by the urgent need to improve the environmental performance of tourism accommodation businesses. The aim of the research is to work with a diverse range of accommodation providers to achieve reductions in resource use to mainstream tourism. This will be achieved using an experimental…
The course introduces students to academic research methods and tools. The emphasis is for students to develop a research project idea arising from the literature inn their field of engineering. In doing so, students must review and recognize the important of the project to humanity through the eyes of the…
