The University of Pisa and its history

A public university, the University of Pisa has twenty departments as well as top-tier research centres in the fields of agronomy, astronomy, computer science, engineering, medicine, and veterinary medicine. The University also maintains close ties with the National Board of Research’s Pisan Institutes, numerous cultural institutions of importance on both a national and international scale, and various industries, particularly those based in information technology, which experienced a period of explosive growth in Pisa during the 1960s and 1970s.

The University of Pisa was formally founded in 1343, but some academics assert that it actually dates back to the 11th century.

The first indication of a “Studium” in Pisa can be found in 1338 when renowned jurist Ranieri Arsendi moved from Bologna to Pisa. He and Bartolo Da Sassoferrato, a Civil Law lecturer, were paid by the Municipality to impart their knowledge to the general public.
