List of medieval universities
The
list of
medieval universities
comprises
universities
(more precisely,
Studium Generale
) which existed in
Europe
during the
Middle Ages
. It also includes short-lived foundations and European educational institutions whose university status is a matter of debate. The
degree-awarding
university with its
corporate
organization and relative autonomy is a product of medieval
Christian
Europe. Before 1500 more than eighty universities were established in
Western
and
Central Europe
. During the subsequent
Colonization of the Americas
the
university was introduced to the New World
, marking the beginning of its worldwide spread as
the
center of
higher learning
everywhere (see
List of oldest universities
).
