About

Flinders University, established as the Flinders University of South Australia, is an Australian public research university based in Adelaide, South Australia. Founded in 1966, it was named in honour of the British navigator Matthew Flinders, who had explored and surveyed the Australian coastline in the early 19th century. Flinders University became the oldest extant South Australian university, superseding the University of Adelaide, when the latter merged with the University of South Australia to create Adelaide University in early 2026.
