At the University of Adelaide, we unite and serve those
striving to change the world—and themselves—for the better. This is a place
where you can make history.
Established in 1874, we’re home to around 29,000 students
and 3,000 staff, all working to create progress. For everyone in our community. For all. Ours is a university of outstanding quality—ranked as a top 100 global university—in
the heart of the city of Adelaide.
Adelaide has made a habit of breaking new ground. We
were Australia’s first university to welcome female students. The first to
offer science and business degrees. The first with a conservatorium of music.
Among those who’ve studied, taught, or conducted
research here are Australia’s first female prime minister; space-walking astronaut;
Indigenous Rhodes Scholar; and female Supreme Court judge, state governor and
university chancellor. That’s in addition to the 2021 Young Australian of the
Year; 2020 Australian of the Year; and five Nobel Prize winners.
Our bold spirit continues to drive us to excel. In
research, as our state’s only member of Australia’s prestigious Group of Eight
research-intensive universities, we’re rising to global challenges in a huge range
of fields, with work universally rated world-standard or above*.
In fact, our output—frequently collaborative with
industry and government—is recognised as ‘well above’ world standard in 41
distinct areas. These range from space sciences, materials engineering and AI,
to cardiorespiratory medicine, crop production and environmental science.
As a teaching university, we’re ranked among the top
100 globally in 24 different subject areas†. In eight of those—including
computer science, and dentistry we’re top-50.
We also lead our state in graduate employability‡. Our
degrees combine deep discipline knowledge with broad, transferable skills,
ensuring graduates are well prepared for a multidimensional career in the
future workforce.

In most of our degrees students can undertake an internship—either as part of, or in addition to, their studies. Internships are a great way to develop industry connections and networks, prepare you for graduate work environments and provide you the opportunity to apply knowledge and skills into real-life situations.
Students undertaking certain degrees will be required to complete an internship or clinical placements as part of their studies to meet professional accreditation requirements. Our Allied Health students, for example, complete over 800 hours’ of work-based training in a wide variety of healthcare settings and our Engineering students complete practical placements under the supervision of qualified, practicing engineers.
