The University of Adelaide was a world-class research and higher education institution situated in the heart of one of the world’s top 10 most liveable cities. Founded in 1874, we were Australia’s third oldest university and consistently rank among the world’s elite—in the top one per cent globally and number one in South Australia. Our reputation for excellence and breaking new ground was forged by a continuous stream of exceptional people. We proudly count among our distinguished alumni: five Nobel Laureates; more than 120 Fulbright Scholars; and over 100 Rhodes Scholars, including two female Indigenous Australian recipients. Australia’s first female prime minister and Supreme Court judge were also University of Adelaide graduates. Australian University Provider Number: PRV12105 CRICOS Provider Number: 00123M
