Public University
A public university is an institution of higher education funded and operated by government authorities, typically at the state or national level. Its primary goal is to provide accessible, high-quality education to the public and to conduct research benefiting society. Public universities often have lower tuition for residents of their area compared to private institutions and serve a diverse student body. They offer a wide range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs across various fields, emphasizing both academic excellence and community engagement while being accountable to government and public interests.
