 Roseworthy Campus
Roseworthy Campus of the University of Adelaide
is an internationally renowned centre for excellence in dryland agriculture, natural resource management and
animal production. Roseworthy is continuing its pioneering role with a new strategic
vision for the 21st century that focusses on combining and integrating resources
with campus partners and rural industries to develop the campus as the hub of
information transfer, communication, learning and new technologies for the rural
community.
Campus partners include Technical and Further Education (TAFE)
SA, Primary Industries and Resources South Australia (PIRSA)
and the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI).
Roseworthy is also the location for collaborative centres such as the Livestock
Systems Alliance (LSA), Pig and Poultry Production Institute (PPPI) and
Roseworthy
Information Centre.
Roseworthy Campus 125th Celebration
'The Science Behind the Product'
On Sunday 2 November 2008 we will celebrate the past, the present and the future. Roseworthy has made an invaluable contribution to the education and careers of local, state, national and international identities across a range of industries including agriculture and viticulture.
The campus is home to the State Government's Constellation in Animal Science, a major player in five Cooperative Research Centres (Pork, Poultry, Sheep, Beef and Bioremediation); and the JS Davies Beef Cattle Research Centre. Australian Grain Technologies Pty Ltd (AGT) is the largest cereal breeding company in Australia and one of the largest in the world, and has made Roseworthy the centre of its national operations.
Roseworthy is once again leading the way in servicing the vitally important agricultural sector of Australia.
Roseworthy Campus has been reinvigorated recently with the establishment of a highly-successful Degree in Animal Science, attracting more than 50 students per year and building on this success, the awarding of 45 places per year in Veterinary Science - which commenced in 2008.
