Adelaide University is emerging as a global powerhouse with a bold ambition to deliver transformative education and reimagined research with impact, transcending borders around the world as a member of Australia’s Group of Eight (Go8). It brings together the strengths and legacies of its foundation institutions while redefining a contemporary and future-focused vision for generations to come. It unlocks unparalleled opportunities for multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary collaborations across disciplines, including machine learning, artificial intelligence, defence, space, advanced manufacturing, and business growth.

Adelaide University’s foundation institutions have fostered high-impact partnerships and collaborations with industry leaders, government bodies, and global organisations. The investment in – and presence of – cutting-edge research facilities and incubators such as the Australian Institute of Machine Learning (AIML), Thinclab, the Innovation & Collaboration Centre and the Andy Thomas Centre for Space Resources (ATCSR) further underscore the new Adelaide University’s innovation ecosystem. The ATCSR is a globally connected research centre focused on enabling long-term human presence in deep space. Multidisciplinary teams specialising in off-Earth civil engineering, architecture, robotics, human-machine teaming, geology, psychology and law are delivering research outcomes that benefit both humans in space and life here on Earth.
