University of Adelaide

The University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia have combined their strengths to create a new university for the future, Adelaide University. 
By every measure, the University of Adelaide—a member of Australia’s prestigious Group of Eight research-intensive universities—stands tall among the world’s leading institutions of learning and innovation.
The clearest indication of this is our consistently high rating by the most respected international assessment bodies. QS World University Rankings, Times Higher Education and Shanghai Jiao Tong’s Academic Rankings of World Universities (ARWU) all consider us one of the top 1% of Universities worldwide, and the top university in South Australia.
With over 29,000 students from more than 100 countries and over 3,000 staff, half of whom are born overseas, the University’s deep global connections are integral to its vision of building a better future for all.
At the University of Adelaide, we embrace our role and purpose as a future-maker—for our state, our nation and our world.
We pursue meaningful change as we celebrate our proud history: applying proven values in the pursuit of contemporary educational and research excellence; meeting our local and global community’s evolving needs and challenges; and striving to prepare our graduates for their aspirations and the needs of the future workforce.
Our focus is informed by the multiple changes confronting today’s society, including the:

need for economic transition—to new industries and jobs
imperative of social transformation—demanding more accessible, lifelong learning
impact of globalisation—making global opportunities available locally
pervasive nature of technological disruption—redefining socio-economic constructs
pursuit of sustainability—socially, economically and environmentally.

The University is uniquely positioned to design and drive a prosperous, entrepreneurial future built on knowledge, innovation and collaboration.
We’re a dynamic participant in society, leading our community in leveraging change for social and economic benefit. We listen to industry and we connect with diverse community groups far and wide to deliver education and research of the highest value and impact.
Our greatest asset is our 160,000 strong global alumni community who are making an impact around the world. Our distinguished alumni include five Nobel Laureates; over 110 Rhodes Scholars, including Australia’s first Indigenous recipient; Australia’s first female prime minister; and Australia’s first female supreme court judge.
We partner with leading higher education institutions, research centres, corporations and government agencies across the globe, and work with them to solve the most pressing global challenges and shape future global leaders.
