Université de Paris

Université de Paris, often referred to as Paris University, was a prominent higher education institution in France, founded in the 12th century. It was one of the first universities in the world and played a significant role in medieval education and scholarship. In 1970, it was restructured into several independent universities, each specializing in different fields such as law, sciences, humanities, and medicine. Today, these institutions continue to foster academic research and education, maintaining Paris’s reputation as a global center for knowledge and culture.
