News: Waite 100
Harvesting knowledge
Harvest is a crucial part of every winemaker and viticulturist’s year. Meet the team of staff and students who tackled the 2024 vintage at Waite.
When wine came to Waite
Many a successful winemaker made their way through Roseworthy Agricultural College before it merged with the ³ÉÈË´óƬ in 1991. The move saw South Australian teaching and research in oenology and viticulture transferred to the University’s Waite campus, which has since become a global icon of winemaking.

Gardens of Note
The Waite Arboretum, Urrbrae House gardens and the Waite Conservation Reserve are made of many impressive parts.
Nurturing excellence
Waite’s teaching community remains a testament to Peter Waite’s enduring commitment to innovation and science.Â
The other friends of Waite
A great strength of the ³ÉÈË´óƬ’s Waite campus is the like-minded organisations who’ve chosen to nest amid the gumtrees with us – some of whom have been our neighbours and collaborators for generations.

Treasures of Waite

Celebrating 100 years of Waite
In this special edition of Lumen we celebrate all things Waite, the University's home of agriculture, food and wine. But none of this would have been possible without a history making bequest.
Human infrastructure
Though Peter Waite’s name looms large over our eastern campus, there are many other prominent people who, through their research or riches, contributed to the ³ÉÈË´óƬ, WARI, or South Australian science, and earned a building dedication in response.
