The Medal (formerly named "Council Gold Medal") was instituted in 1984, and since that time Gatton Campus graduates have been honoured by the award of the Medal on an annual basis.

The purpose of awarding the UQ Gatton Gold Medal is primarily to recognise a graduate who has achieved outstanding success or honour in, or has made and continues to make, an outstanding contribution to their vocation in an area of relevance to the interests of UQ Gatton. In addition, the award presents an opportunity to highlight in public the role and achievements of UQ Gatton.

Nominations are called for a recipient of the UQ Gatton Gold Medal close Friday 10 July 2009. Details relating to the award and the nomination form can be obtained from:
