Deputy Vice-Chancellor's message
One of the joys of working at this University is the opportunity to play a fundamental role in providing an excellent educational experience. Ultimately, each of us helps to support our students to be outstanding in whatever they choose to study and pursue in their lives. The flow-on effect of our work spreads throughout our communities, and across generations.
Vice-Chancellor's message
As we begin the second quarter of 2025, it has been pleasing to see that even during change, the University follows its time-honoured rituals. Our campuses are again full of students, and our staff and volunteers are doing their best to ensure that students are equipped with the information, resources, and support services to ensure they get the most out of their studies.

Executive Dean's message
The Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences was pleased to recently celebrate an historic first with the appointment of Professor Josephine Thomas, a proud alumna, and the first ever female Dean of Medicine and Head of Adelaide Medical School since the Faculty of Medicine was established in 1885. This milestone, achieved as we entered into our final year as the University of Adelaide, perfectly embodies our commitment to history making.
Executive Dean's message
The diversity of activities in the Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology broadly reflects our commitment to innovation, sharing and creating knowledge, and being prepared for the challenges of the future.
Executive Dean's message
As semester begins, so too does the familiar buzz of activity on our campuses, following a successful O'Week that saw over 3,000 students on the grounds at North Terrace, and well-attended events at our Waite and Roseworthy campuses.
Chancellor's message
Much of our enduring value as an institution resides in the strength of our community with its culture of respect for all. Indeed, we attract and retain remarkable staff and students at this university because they know that they are welcome and respected here. It is within such a cohesive community that most people find they can do their best work.
Deputy Vice-Chancellor's message
The vibrancy on our campuses is palpable and increasing, and I’m looking forward to welcoming returning students and to seeing many new faces around our grounds. O’Week officially began yesterday, and the range of activities provides an introduction to all that campus life has to offer, along with many opportunities to make connections.
