university of edinburgh
(foldoc) | University of Edinburgh
A university in the centre of Scotland's
capital. The University of Edinburgh has been promoting and
setting standards in education for over 400 years. Granted
its Royal Charter in 1582 by James VI, the son of Mary Queen
of Scots, the University was founded the following year by the
Town Council of Edinburgh, making it the first
post-Reformation university in Scotland, and the first civic
university to be established in the British Isles.
Known in its early years as King James College, or the Tounis
(Town's) College, the University soon established itself
internationally, and by the 18th century Edinburgh was a
leading centre of the European Enlightenment and one of the
continent's principal universities. The University's close
relationship with the city in which it is based, coupled with
a forward-looking, international perspective, has kept
Edinburgh at the forefront of new research and teaching
developments whilst enabling it to retain a uniquely Scottish
character.
Edinburgh's academics are at the forefront of developments in
the study and application of languages, medicine,
micro-electronics, biotechnology, computer-based disciplines
and many other subjects. Edinburgh's standing as a world
centre for research is further enhanced by the presence on and
around University precincts of many independently-funded, but
closely linked, national research institutes
(http://ed.ac.uk/).
Address: Old College, South Bridge, Edinburgh, Scotland EH8
9YL, UK.
Telephone: +44 (131) 650 1000.
