The University of South Australia is a public university in the Australian state of South Australia. It was formed in 1991 with the merger of the South Australian Institute of Technology and Colleges of Advanced Education. However, one of its antecedent institutions, the South Australian School of Arts, dates back to 1856 which makes it one of the oldest art schools in Australia. It is the largest university in South Australia with more than 32,000 students.
The university is a leading expert in technical education and applied research, as well being a founding member of the Australian Technology Network. It has four metropolitan campuses in Adelaide and two regional campuses in Whyalla and Mount Gambier. The metro campuses have specific academic focuses: City West and Magill focus on architecture, the arts, humanities and social sciences; City East specialises in health, biomedical, pharmaceutical and nursing programmes; Mawson Lakes teaches technical, educational and scientific disciplines. The regional campuses are more generalist. It has no department of history. |
