Adelaide University signage project

Estates & Facilities will be updating more than 2,300 university signs to support Day 1 operations. The works include the AU rebranding, and updating the names of university areas. While most building and perimeter signs will be refreshed as part of this project, local areas are responsible for updating their promotional materials such as pull-up banners, posters and flags, with AU branding – ideally by 1 January 2026. All materials must follow AU brand principles and gain Brand Governance approval before production. Rebranding Adelaide University will remain an ongoing and evolving process beyond the current project scope. Please read the AU signage document for details before contacting facilitiessupport@adelaide.edu.au with queries.
