The History Of The Australian Startup Ecosystem - Part 1About University of South Australia (UniSA)
The University of South Australia (UniSA) was a public university based in Adelaide. It was formed in 1991 by merging the South Australian Institute of Technology with three campuses of the South Australian College of Advanced Education, and taught at campuses in Adelaide, Mount Gambier and Whyalla. UniSA and the University of Adelaide agreed to combine in 2023, and the merged institution, Adelaide University, opened in January 2026. UniSA was formally disestablished in 2026 when its founding Act was repealed.
