WHY CHOOSE FLINDERS
The Flinders University of South Australia, commonly referred to as Flinders University, is a public university in Adelaide, South Australia.
Flinders University's Bedford Park campus is one of the best-kept secrets among Australian universities. For first-time visitors, it is hard to believe that the spacious, elevated site with panoramic views of the city to the north and the glorious coast to the west exists in metropolitan Adelaide. Just 10 minutes from the beach and 20 minutes from the Adelaide city centre, Flinders has everything you need in one convenient location and is a superb environment in which to study, relax and meet with friends.
Flinders University's $3.3m fitness centre is modern and air-conditioned, with friendly instructors, state-of-the-art equipment and million-dollar views.
Flinders has a range of clubs and societies to cater for your interests, whether they are related to your degree, religion, culture, political affiliation, or just for fun. Clubs and societies are run by students, for students. If you can't find the club or society for you, you can apply to start your own.
Adelaide is often overshadowed by the popular cities of Melbourne and Sydney but it still packs a punch. Adelaide has plenty of culture and diversity to offer and certainly enough to explore while studying abroad. The city itself is located in parkland, meaning green spaces are never far away. There are many vibrant restaurants and coffee shops as you might expect in an Australia city. There is also a thriving arts scene with many festivals taking place throughout the year. Beyond the city, the beaches or hilly hinterland are just 20 minutes away.
