Adelaide University (Kaurna: Tirkangkaku) is a public research university based in Adelaide, Australia. Founded in 2024 and officially opened on 29 January 2026, it merged the University of Adelaide, the third-oldest university in Australia, and the University of South Australia (UniSA), which had an antecedent history dating back to 1856. Its two main campuses are located in the Adelaide city centre, one, City West, adjacent to the Adelaide BioMed City and near the Royal Adelaide Hospital, and the other, City East, located at the east end of North Terrace, near the Lot Fourteen tech precincts and containing the original University of Adelaide campus, with additional campuses located across its home state of South Australia.

The two antecedent universities' histories date back to the former Royal South Australian Society of Arts. The University of Adelaide was founded in 1874 by the Union College, with studies initially conducted at the Public Library of South Australia (now the State Library). The society was also the birthplace of the South Australian Institute of Technology (SAIT) founded in 1889 as the School of Mines and Industries. SAIT later became the University of South Australia during the Dawkins Revolution following a merger with amalgamated colleges dating back to the School of Art, also founded at the society. After a failed attempt to agree to a merger in 2018, the two universities agreed to merge in mid-2023.4 The combined Adelaide University was incorporated the following year and opened after two years of concurrent operations.

The university has seven campuses, including the combined flagship Adelaide city centre campus in North Terrace; a STEM-oriented campus in Mawson Lakes; the Magill campus specialising in social sciences; the Waite campus in Urrbrae; and regional campuses in Roseworthy, Mount Gambier, and Whyalla. Its academic activities are organised into six constituent colleges which are subdivided into 29 academic schools. It also manages several museums and exhibits, including the Samstag Museum and Adelaide Planetarium. It is a member of the Group of Eight, an association of research-intensive universities in Australia, and is co-located with the Australian Space Agency and various defence technology companies.

Alumni of the two antecedent universities include the first female prime minister of Australia, Julia Gillard; two presidents of Singapore; the first astronaut born in Australia, Andy Thomas; and the first demonstrator of nuclear fusion, Mark Oliphant. The two universities have also produced a combined 117 Rhodes scholars and 173 Fulbright scholars, and are associated with five Nobel laureates.

History

University of Adelaide

The history of the University of Adelaide dates back to the Union College established in 1872 to provide education to aspiring Protestant ministers who were previously required to travel to the United Kingdom.567 The college approached Scottish-born pastoralist Walter Watson Hughes with the proposal for a South Australian university with a request for endowment towards its creation.876 Following an agreement, a university association was established by the Union College on 23 September 1872 to manage the creation of the university.689

The University of Adelaide, which is named after its founding city namesake to Queen Adelaide, was formally established on 6 November 1874 following the passage of its founding legislation through the South Australian parliament.1011 The parliament also provided a 2 hectare (5 acre) land grant for a campus.12 Its early benefactors, many of whom Scottish immigrants, made large donations to develop the university.1314 The university has produced some of the Australia's earliest businesspeople, lawyers, medical professionals and politicians.15

It was founded with the backing of its first benefactor Walter Hughes and Thomas Elder, also a Scottish-born pastoralist and another founder of the university, who each donated £20,000 towards the association.1416 The university initially occupied the South Australian Institute Building prior to the construction of the University Building which housed the entire campus at the time.17 Elder also bequeathed an additional £65,000 in his will following his death in 1897 of which £20,000 were allocated to set up the Elder Conservatorium of Music.18 Other donors include William Mitchell and Robert Barr Smith, also from Scotland and early leaders of the university.1920

The institution was the third of its kind on the Australian continent after the Universities of Sydney and Melbourne, which then educated solely men.212223 The university, which allowed women to study alongside men since its commencement soon became the second university in the English-speaking world following the University of London in 1878 to formally admit women on equal terms as men in 1881.24 This was following a royal charter granted by Queen Victoria that year, which allowed for women to be conferred degrees.625 This has contributed to a number of firsts in the history of women's education in Australia.24

Notable women include its first female graduate Edith Emily Dornwell who concurrently became the first person in Australia to receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in 1885.26 The university also graduated Australia's first female surgeon Laura Margaret Fowler in 1891.2728 Ruby Claudia Davy was the first Australian woman to receive a doctorate in music in 1918.2930 Other notable firsts also include Winifred Kiek, Margaret Reid and Janine Haines.313233 In 1914, the university was also the first to elect a woman, Helen Mayo, to a university council in Australia.34 It is also the alma mater of Roma Mitchell who was Australia's first female judge, the first woman to be a Queen's Counsel, a chancellor of an Australian university and the governor of an Australian state.35 Australia's first female prime minister Julia Gillard had also studied at the university and the first Aboriginal Rhodes Scholar Rebecca Richards in 2010.363738

In 1991, it formally opened two additional campuses in Greater Adelaide outside of the city centre.39 These included the Waite and Roseworthy campuses, though the university operated at the Waite site since at least 1924 as the Waite Agricultural Research Institute.4039 The Roseworthy campus was the former Roseworthy Agricultural College which, although affiliated with the university since 1905, was an independent institution prior to their merger.41 Additionally, the university previously operated research facilities across 5 hectares (12 acres) in Thebarton approximately 3 km (1.9 mi) north of the campus until 2020.424344

The SA School of Art, the earliest antecedent institution of the University of South Australia, was established in 1856 at the former Royal South Australian Society of Arts.4546 The independent art school, which went through many name changes, resided for most of its history at the Jubilee Exhibition Building which was later transferred to the University of Adelaide in 1929.474648 It remained on the campus until 1962 when the building was demolished to make way for several university buildings.464950

The Jubilee Exhibition Building was also the birthplace of the South Australian Institute of Technology which was established in 1889 as the SA School of Mines and Industries.495152 It moved to the neighbouring Brookman Building in 1903, named after the Scottish-born businessman George Brookman who contributed £15,000 towards its construction.535455 The institute maintained strong ties with the neighbouring University of Adelaide that included the co-ordination of teaching, laboratories and examinations across fields of engineering and sciences.565758 Despite the university later establishing its own faculty of engineering in 1937, the reciprocal relationship remained intertwined to the University Council and studies completed at the institute were recognised as equivalent studies eligible for credit towards university courses.56575960 The institute later expanded to the regional city of Whyalla in 1962 and to the Adelaide suburb of Mawson Lakes in 1972 as The Levels.514659 In 1965, it was designated an advanced college which initiated an expansion in the variety of courses available.61

The Adelaide Teachers College, which changed names and shifted locations multiple times throughout its existence, was established in 1876.6263 Despite not being located at the University of Adelaide campus until 1900, students from the institution attended university lectures since at least 1878.6263 In 1921, it renamed to the Adelaide Teachers College, in line with other interstate teachers colleges.6263 Despite offers from the university to take control of the college, which was heavily integrated into the university, the Education Department retained administrative authority throughout its early history.6263 The Hartley Building was built as its permanent home in 1927.626463

This map shows the university and the locations of its neighbouring institutions in 1926.

The college eventually renamed to the Adelaide College of the Arts and Education.6258 It also established additional teachers colleges in other parts of the city including Magill.626546 Following a series of mergers,466665 the colleges expanded to become advanced colleges which all later amalgamated with the original mother college to become the South Australian College of Advanced Education in 1982.626768 The combined institution continued its presence alongside the University of Adelaide with which it maintained joint teaching, facilities and committees.58697062 The campus merged with the university in 1991.7147

Stronger demand for advanced college places throughout the country resulted from a broadening appeal of higher education beyond the traditionally elite education provided by the universities.727374 Advanced colleges were originally designed to complement universities, forming a binary system modelled on that of the United Kingdom.7475767778 It was originally created by the Menzies government following World War II on the advice of a committee led by physicist Leslie H. Martin, during a period of high population growth and corresponding demand for secondary and tertiary education.72787980 This sector ceased to exist when, between 1989 and 1992, the Hawke-Keating government implemented the sweeping reforms of Education Minister John Dawkins that dismantled the binary system.747881 The states, eager for increased education funding, merged the colleges either with existing universities or with each other to form new universities.747677788082 Following its expansion and increasing autonomy from the university, the South Australian Institute of Technology was given the option to merge with either TAFE South Australia or the South Australian College of Advanced Education.475657 It chose to merge with the latter advanced college resulting in the establishment of the University of South Australia, which continues to remain neighbours with the University of Adelaide.478283

The University of South Australia became the state's third public university, a continuation of the former South Australian Institute of Technology that merged with most of the SACAE, and maintained their historical presence next to the University of Adelaide, in the suburbs of Mawson Lakes and Magill and in the regional city of Whyalla.54684 Its expansion over the next few decades, including to sites on the west end of North Terrace, and broadening fields of studies contributed to its status as the state's largest university by student population.58485 It also became the second-largest university nationally by number of online students, either in the state or from other parts of the country, and expanded to Mount Gambier in 2005.8186

Merger progression

In June 2018, the University of Adelaide and University of South Australia began discussions regarding the possibility of a merger. The proposition was dubbed a "super uni" by then South Australian premier, Steven Marshall, and Simon Birmingham,878889 but the merger was called off in October 2018 by the University of South Australia, which was less keen.9091 Vice-chancellor David Lloyd, in an email to University of South Australia staff, claimed that the amalgamation lacked a compelling case. This statement was contradicted by the University of Adelaide's chancellor who said that the merger continues to be in the state's best interests and a spokesperson for the university added that it was still open to future talks.929391 Following the release of several internal FOI documents retrieved by ABC News, it was later revealed that the merger talks failed due to disagreements on the post-merger institution's leadership structure.91 The name Adelaide University of South Australia was agreed upon by both universities and Chris Schacht, who previously served on the University of Adelaide Council, alleged that the merger talks failed due to disagreement on which vice-chancellor would replace the other following their amalgamation.91

In early 2022, the topic of a merger was raised again by the new state government led by premier Peter Malinauskas, which proposed setting up an independent commission to investigate the possibility of a merger between the state's three public universities should they decline.9294 He had made an election promise to take a heavy-handed approach towards the merger to reduce students departing to higher-ranking institutions on the east coast and to improve the state's ability to attract international students and researchers.9492 At the time, staff's opinions were evenly divided on the idea of the commission.93 Following the appointment of merger advocate Peter Høj as University of Adelaide vice-chancellor, both universities announced that a merger would once again be considered.9596 The universities began a feasibility study into a potential merger at the end of the year.96 The invitation to merger negotiations was rejected by Flinders University, the state's third public university.97

The agreement for the merger was reached on 1 July 2023 by the two universities, which then accounted for approximately two-thirds of the state's public university population, in consultation with the South Australian Government.49899100101 The rationale for the amalgamation was a larger institutional scale may be needed in order to increase the universities' ranking positions, ability to secure future research income and a net positive impact on the state economy.102103 The two universities argued that by combining their expertise, resources and finances into a single institution, they can be more financially viable, with stronger teaching and research outcomes.104 Support for the merger among existing staff were mixed, with a National Tertiary Education Union SA survey showing that only a quarter were in favour of the amalgamation.1054 Warren Bebbington, who previously served as vice-chancellor at the University of Adelaide, described the proposed institution as a "lumbering dinosaur" in reference to its timing during an ongoing federal review of the higher education sector.102 Vice-chancellor Colin Stirling described plans to provide the new institution with A$300 million in research funding and scholarships as "unfair" to students who choose to study at Flinders University.102 The combined figure was later revised to A$464.5 million to include land purchases, with an additional A$40 million research fund set up for Flinders University.106

In November 2023, legislation passed state parliament enabling the creation of the new university to be named Adelaide University, previously a colloquial name used by the University of Adelaide.106107 An application for self-accreditation authority was submitted to the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) on 15 January 2024, which was needed for the institution to offer courses that issue qualifications.108109 Following approval on 22 May 2024, students starting studies at the pre-merger institutions from 2025 onwards will be issued degree certificates from Adelaide University.110111 Students enrolled on or prior to 2024 will also be able to opt in adding antecedent institutions' names and logos on their parchments.111 The combined institution is expected to become operational by January 2026, with an additional transitional period extending to 2034.104112 It is projected to have 70,000 students at launch, with one-in-four students being international students, and contribute approximately A$4.7 billion to the Australian economy annually.113 The amalgamation has been subject to mixed reactions.

In June 2025, Nicola Phillips, previously provost and professor of political economy at the University of Melbourne, was announced as vice-chancellor and president of the new university.114

On 18 July 2025, the university was assigned the Kaurna name Tirkangkaku, which means "place of learning". The name was chosen selected by elder Uncle Lewis Yarlupurka O'Brien in consultation with Aboriginal staff and UniSA's Purkarninthi Elders in Residence.115

Official opening

On 29 January 2026 Premier Peter Malinauskas unveiled the plaque at the university's official opening, with vice chancellor Nicola Phillips and chancellor Pauline Carr alongside him.114

Campuses and buildings

The university will inherit seven campuses in South Australia, including its flagship Adelaide City campus.116 They include:

Bonython Hall, a great hall of the university, was built in 1936 following a donation of over £50,000 from the owner of The Advertiser newspaper, John Langdon Bonython, who was inspired following his visit to the Great Hall of the University of Sydney.125 The hall, which has been used during graduation ceremonies among other events, was designed by architect Louis Laybourne-Smith based on medieval great halls in a Gothic Revival architecture style inspired by the ancient universities in Europe.125126 In between it and the Mitchell Building, which both face the terrace, is the Elder Hall which is its oldest great hall on the site.127128 It is a large concert hall that is used by the Elder Conservatorium of Music among others and, along with Bonython Hall, both feature large organs.129130

The campus also includes other venues including the Scott Theatre, Little Theatre and the College Green. The Scott Theatre is the largest lecture theatre on site and is often hired out for performances of various kinds such as the Adelaide Fringe events.131132133134 It features two revolving stages and a seating capacity of 635 people.132 The Little Theatre is located in the Cloisters and is primarily used for dramatic performances by the Theatre Guild.135136137 The College Green stretches from the Cloisters across the lawns down to Victoria Drive, next to the River Torrens.127138 It hosts various social events throughout the year including parties, live bands, DJs and open-air cinema among others.138139140 It was created in response to the impact of social distancing restrictions owing to the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia, which hit many live music venues.139

The Waite campus specialises in agricultural science, viticulture, oenology, plant breeding, food research and biotechnology.199200 It is located in the suburb of Urrbrae in Adelaide's eastern foothills, adjacent to the Urrbrae Agricultural High School, on 184 hectares (450 acres) of which a large amount was donated through the will of Scottish-born pastoralist Peter Waite.201202 Approximately half of the land donated was dedicated for studies in agriculture and the remainder as a public park.202203 The Waite Research Precinct is home to several research centres.204

The Waite Agricultural Research Institute was established in 1924.205206 Its first director was Arnold E. V. Richardson.202 Later renamed to the Waite Research Institute, it produces approximately 70% of Australia's research output in viticulture and oenology and around 80% of cereal varieties used in southern Australia were created there.200207 A Soil Research Centre was founded in 1929 with a donation of £10,000 from Harold Darling of J. Darling and Son, grain merchants.208 In 2004, State Premier Mike Rann opened the A$9.2 million Plant Genomics Centre at the campus.209 In 2010, he opened The Plant Accelerator, a A$30 million research facility which is the largest and most advanced of its kind in the world.210

Controversies

Initial merger discussions

The University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia had previously engaged to discuss a merger in 2018 but failed due to disagreements from the latter about the post-merger leadership structure.90919293

Opinion polling on staff

The National Tertiary Education Union SA conducted a survey of 1,100 university staff and found that three-quarters of respondents were against the merger.4105395 In addition, the state government has been accused of coercing the universities to agree to merge, indicating that a commission of inquiry would be established to find ways to compel the two universities to merge had their councils refused to do so, with less financial support available.4105396

Andrew Miller, the state secretary of the union, raised concerns that staff were under "extreme psychosocial pressure" to meet the 2026 launch deadline.397 Backing his claims with communications from the Integration Management Office staff responsible for merging the two institutions, he added that the "Game of Thrones" perception among staff competing "for the final spots of the new Adelaide University" was causing tensions, breakdowns and disharmony.397 The institutions' vice-chancellors David Lloyd and Peter Høj criticised the claims, referring to them as "whispers of Little Birds or Littlefingers",398 though they had previously admitted that the "two-by-two approach across the board" was "not as linear as first conceived".397

In 2025, a FOI document obtained by The Australian found an increase in bullying and harassment reports at the University of Adelaide following the announcement of the merger.399 It added concerns from staff that the merger would result in a "meat grinder producing poorly educated students" that would be seen as "walking dollar signs".399

The post-merger plan to switch to a trimester academic calendar has also been criticised by the union whose internal poll showed that more than 4 in 5 members were against the move.400

Land re-development

In February 2024, the State Government drew criticism for its plans to convert land it had purchased from two University of South Australia campuses for housing and commercial re-development.194 As part of the merger agreement, the land was to be sold to the South Australian Government for A$114.5 million and leased back to the university for a period of up to 10 years.194 Following the release of several internal FOI documents retrieved by InDaily from the Premier's Office, it was later revealed that the land was "earmarked for future development" for residential and commercial purposes.194

The original media release replaced the phrase with "short-term transitional lease to university", referring to the leaseback period of 10 years, following concerns from UniSA vice-chancellor David Lloyd that the original draft would "create enormous community reaction which will be particularly unhelpful at this time".194 The land sales account for the entirety of the Magill campus and approximately 50% of the Mawson Lakes campus.194

Elimination of in-person lectures

In September 2024, internal documents announced a shift away from face-to-face lectures in favour of rich digital learning activities.401402 Dr Andrew Miller, division secretary of the National Tertiary Education Union's South Australia branch said that the decision ''flies in the face of co-creation and professional autonomy and expertise".401
