A unified global network

Our alumni are trailblazers, innovators and changemakers working on the global stage.

From day one, Adelaide University will connect more than 400,000 alumni from 150 countries – making it one of the largest alumni groups in Australia.

We’ll welcome the inaugural cohort of alumni to our combined network in 2026, bringing a new generation into our community to share experiences, stories, and memories around the world.

Unified by the legacies of their foundation institutions, our alumni are industry leaders and innovators. They include five Nobel prize winners; more than a dozen dames and knights; captains of industry and public service leaders; Australia’s first astronaut; multiple Olympians; and prestigious international scholarship recipients, award winners and recipients of Australian honours across every industry.

With a tradition of bringing together alumni communities internationally and locally, there will be many opportunities ahead for alumni to connect, learn and grow.
