About the University

History, Affiliations and Rankings

Founded in 1477, Uppsala University was initiated by Archbishop Jakob Ulvsson of Uppsala in Sweden. It was Scandinavia's first university, with only a few professors and perhaps 50 students. By the end of the 16th century, the Protestant clergy had established a firm grip on religious teaching. In 1593, the Church council in Uppsala voted to restore the university's rights, and on March 15, 1595, the new charter was signed. For 5 centuries, the institution has provided high-quality education in a variety of subjects. The University is accredited by the Coimbra Group, the European University Association, and the Guild of European Research-Intensive Universities. According to the QS World University Rankings 2022, Uppsala University is ranked #124, and as per Times Higher Education Rankings, it is placed at #131. Furthermore, the U.S. News Best Global Universities rankings 2022 places the university at #113 globally.
