Bond University has muscled up for global health and wellbeing, joining the prestigious FISU Healthy Campus initiative — an international program designed to make university life healthier, more active, and more connected.
And we’re not just dipping a toe in — we’ve already hit a major milestone, earning the International University Sports Federation’s (FISU), Bronze Level Certification.
That means Bond is meeting top-tier global standards in everything from mental and social wellbeing to physical activity, nutrition, and sustainability.
But this is just the beginning. Bond is setting its sights on even higher certification levels, reinforcing what we’ve always been about — creating an environment where students, staff, and the entire campus community can thrive.
It is all part of Bond University’s commitment to supporting the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
More Than Just Talk—Bond Lives and Breathes Wellbeing
Bond has long been a leader in health, sport, and high-performance education. Our world-class programs in medicine, sports management, exercise science, and applied health are just part of the story. We also offer a campus culture that makes movement and wellbeing second nature — whether it’s competitive sport, social fitness activities, or simply being part of a community that values a balanced lifestyle.
And let’s not forget our elite athletes. Bond is a hub for high-performance sport, offering state-of-the-art facilities, expert coaching, and academic flexibility to help student-athletes excel on and off the field.
What’s Next?
Earning Bronze is a fantastic achievement, but Bond isn’t stopping here. As we continue climbing the FISU Healthy Campus ranks, we’re making sure that wellbeing isn’t just a buzzword — it’s a core part of the Bond experience.
This isn’t just about Bond. It’s about setting the bar for universities worldwide and proving that health, sport, and academic excellence can go hand in hand.
So, here’s to healthier, happier, and higher-performing Bondies — on campus, in competition, and beyond.
