The history of Newcastle University can be traced back to 1834, when the Medical College was established in Newcastle City, providing lectures and surgical experimental courses for 26 students who were studying at that time. 185 1 June, the school was split into two opposing colleges.
The main college established NewcastleCollegeofMedicine College, while the other college was established as Newcastle upon Tyne College of Medicine and Practical Sciences.
1852, Newcastle Medical College officially merged with King's College of Durham Federal University, and the first "medical license" (licceinmedicine:Lic. Med) 1856. The two colleges were later merged into 1857, and 1870 was renamed Durham Medical College.
In order to provide a place for the city to teach science, the college that teaches mathematics, physics, chemistry and earth sciences became Durham College of Physical Sciences in 1883, and was named Armstrong College in 1904 after the first generation of Baron Armstrong.
These independent or split colleges later became Durham Federal University, which was officially recognized in 1908 and divided into two departments, namely Durham and Newcastle on the Tyne.
By 1908, various departments of Newcastle upon Tyne, such as medical department, art department and science department (covering agriculture and engineering), have taught a wide range of subjects.
Then at the beginning of the 20th century, the federal university system in Durham, which was divided into two departments and spanned two cities, became unsuitable for development, so in 1963, according to ActofParliament, it was divided into two universities, namely Newcastle University and Durham University.
