UniSA is committed to educating professionals; creating and applying knowledge; engaging our communities; maintaining cultural diversity amongst its staff and students; and providing equitable access to education for greater numbers of people. In this way, UniSA continues to build on the long-standing traditions of its antecedent institutions.
UniSA was founded on 1 January 1991 through the amalgamation of the South Australian Institute of Technology and the Magill, Salisbury and Underdale campuses of the South Australian College of Advanced Education. Since then, it has quickly earned a reputation as a national leader in collaborative research, has been recognised nationally for innovation in teaching and has South Australia's largest intake of international students.
UniSA has strong and expanding links in teaching, research, consultancy and continuing education with partners in Asia, Europe, Africa and North America. UniSA has grown rapidly to be a major provider of Australian higher education offshore and has the largest number of international students in Adelaide. It now has the 5th largest number of international students in the country and international students make up close to 30 per cent of its students compared to the national average of 21 per cent.
