The Australian Centre for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies consists of academics and research students who have an interest in researching philanthropy and nonprofit organisations.
The Centre is the first and only fully accredited member of the Nonprofit Academic Centers Council in the southern hemisphere, being a member with the most prestigious and innovative centres in North America.
CPNS is located within the School of Accountancy in the Faculty of Business at Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Australia.
Apart from the research activities, CPNS offers courses tailored for students interested in pursuing careers in the management of philanthropic and nonprofit organisations or in public administration associated with nonprofit organisations.
CPNS has an active community service and continuing professional education program, with public and specialist seminars conducted throughout the year. CPNS also publishes working papers and makes these available to the philanthropic and nonprofit communities and other interested parties via the University's ePrints website.
CPNS encourages those who have an interest in receiving more information or in keeping informed about CPNS's seminars, events and research projects to register your interest.
