About the Scholarship:
In Adelaide, which is the coastal capital of South Australia, there is a public university known as The Institution of Adelaide. In the year 1874, it was established by Walter Watson Hughes, a copper miner and philanthropist. In the year 1876, Adelaide Institution, which is the third-oldest institution in the country, presented its first official lecture in Latin, and at that time, it was the Bachelor of Arts degree that was being offered. The first vice-chancellor of the university was Dr. Augustus Short, who had previously worked as a professor at Christ Church College and had graduated from Oxford University. Short exerted a lot of effort in order to make the University of Adelaide as cutting-edge as was humanly possible. He did this by incorporating modern sciences, literature, art, and philosophy into the curriculum, which differentiated it from the traditional Classics curriculum that was being taught at Oxford at the time. His dream came true in 1882, when the school became the first in all of Australia to provide degrees in the scientific disciplines.
Today, the purpose of the institution is to “discover new knowledge,” “pursue innovation,” and “train tomorrow’s educated leaders who are autonomous, creative thinkers with an international viewpoint,” among other things. It is a member of the Group of Eight, which is an alliance of Australia’s leading research-intensive institutions, and it offers degrees in five different faculties. These faculties are the arts faculty, the engineering faculty, the computer and mathematical sciences faculty, the health sciences faculty, and the scientific faculty. The city of Adelaide is home to over 25,000 students, of which approximately 30 percent come from over 100 different countries, in addition to 3,600 staff members and employees. There are four campuses of the university located inside the state of South Australia, and degree programs can also be pursued in Singapore thanks to a partnership with the Ngee Ann-Adelaide Education Centre. There are other opportunities to pursue a study abroad program in a variety of countries, including Hong Kong, France, the Netherlands, and others. In addition to Julia Gillard, the first female Prime Minister of Australia, and Robin Warren, a co-discoverer of the link between the bacterium Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and peptic ulcers, the university has produced a number of notable alumni, including five Nobel laureates, 110 Rhodes scholars, and five people who have won the Nobel Prize. The Adelaide team takes satisfaction in the fact that they are on track to make history, which also serves as a source of motivation for them.
Our staff members have the opportunity to collaborate with world-class coworkers, get ongoing professional development, and work in a culture that is rich in diversity. Students hailing from more than a hundred different nations make up our community. The majority of our faculty members were either born in a country other than the United States or hold dual citizenship. 2018 Award for Excellence in Research in Australia (the most recent assessment date). * Economist Intelligence Unit, 2021. if one were to believe the QS Graduate Employability Rankings for the year 2020.
