The World University is a central component of the proposed Multifunction Polis in Adelaide. The World University will not be a fourth university campus in Adelaide or compete with other South Australian universities. It is seen as a consortium built around the three South Australian universities and associated partners offering international symposia, intensive leading-edge short courses, specialised training, master classes, joint courses with international institutions, educational teleconferences, and programs of educational events that will involve both academic and industry resources located in any part of the world.
