Our story


The way all great stories start is with a challenge, and this is where our story started. In 1991, a new force was established – we challenged the norm by bringing together an Institute, a College and a School of Art, to form the University of South Australia.

Today, we have more than 230,000 graduates, industry partnerships with more than 2,500 companies worldwide, offer degrees that are industry-focused and informed, and have become one of Australia’s largest online education providers. It is this drive and ambition to break the norm that makes us who we are. Australia’s University of Enterprise.
