Founded by Pope Eugene IV in 1441, the University of Bordeaux has a unique history, from the Renaissance to the twenty-first century, marked by societal events and reforms. The university, with several campus sites in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, is currently among the most influential universities in France and in Europe. While the city was ruled by the English, the University of Bordeaux, with its four faculties of art, medicine, law and theology, made it possible for students from the Duchy of Aquitaine to study. The university strives to prepare the citizens of tomorrow by offering a wide range of multidisciplinary study programmes: University Technical Diplomas, Bachelors, Masters and Doctorates. The University of Bordeaux is strongly committed to a social, economic, cultural and environmental balance with its students and communities.
