Underdale Campus

The Underdale Campus was located five kilometres to the west of the city of Adelaide. The campus was opened as part of the Torrens College of Advanced Education in 1976. In 1979, Torrens College of Advanced Education merged with Adelaide College of Advanced Education to form Adelaide College of the Arts and Education.

In 1982, Adelaide College of the Arts and Education merged with Hartley College of Advanced Education, Salisbury College of Advanced Education and Sturt College of Advanced Education to form the South Australian College of Advanced Education (SACAE). The Underdale Campus was formerly administered as two distinct Faculties (Art, Design and Applied Science and Education and Humanities), in 1988 a single Campus Administration became responsible for two Centres (Aboriginal Studies and Teacher Education Centre and the Centre for Human Resources Studies) and eight Schools: Applied Science, Art, Art and Design Education, Design, Nursing Studies, Physical Education, Studies in Education and Advanced Studies in Education.

In 1991 Underdale Campus became one of the six campuses of the University of South Australia.

The campus closed in 2004 and has since been developed into housing.
