The University of South Australia is a public research university based in South Australia.[7] Established in 1991, it is the largest university in the state with over 36,000 students in 2022.[9][10][11] Its main campuses in North Terrace are co-located with Adelaide's biomedical precinct on its west and the Australian Space Agency headquarters on its east.[12][13][14] In mid-2023, it agreed to merge with the neighbouring University of Adelaide, with which it had maintained historically strong ties.[15][16][17][18][19][20] The two universities accounted for over 72% of the state's public university population in 2022 and the merger is expected to complete by the end of 2025.[9][10][4][21] The combined institution will be re-branded as Adelaide University.[21]

The university was founded in its current form in 1991 with the merger of the South Australian Institute of Technology (SAIT, established in 1889 as the South Australian School of Mines and Industries) and the South Australian College of Advanced Education (SACAE, established 1856).[22] The legislation to establish and name the new University of South Australia was introduced by the Hon Mike Rann MP, then Minister of Employment and Further Education.[23] Under the University's Act, its original mission was "to preserve, extend and disseminate knowledge through teaching, research, scholarship and consultancy, and to provide educational programs that will enhance the diverse cultural life of the wider community".[24]

UniSA is among the world's top newer universities, ranked in the World's Top 50 Under 50 (universities which are under 50 years old) by both the Quacarelli Symonds (QS) World University Ranking (#29) and Times Higher Education (THE) (#46). It has two Adelaide city centre campuses, two Adelaide metropolitan campuses, and two South Australian regional campuses.
