By every measure, the University of Adelaide - a member of Australia's prestigious Group of Eight research-intensive universities—stands tall among the world's leading institutions of learning and innovation. 143 years ago the University of Adelaide was founded with a noble goal: to prepare, for South Australia, young leaders shaped by education rather than birth or wealth in a settlement free of old world social and religious inequalities.
