First, the origin of the university
Modern universities directly originated from European medieval universities in 12 and 13 centuries. Ancient Egypt, India and China are the cradles of higher education, and ancient Greece, Rome, Byzantium and Arab countries have established relatively perfect and developed higher education systems. Although many educational historians call these local institutions of higher learning universities, strictly speaking, they are not real universities.
1088, Italy established the first regular university-Bologna University, which is the most famous research center of Roman law in Europe (also known as "parent university", student university).
Subsequently, universities appeared all over Europe. The University of Paris evolved from the school affiliated to Notre Dame de Paris. 1200, the king of France recognized that scholars of Paris University have legal clergy qualifications and judicial immunity (Paris University is the second university and a gentleman's university).
Modern universities began at the beginning of19th century, which refers to a new type of university after the Enlightenment, especially the University of Berlin founded by Humboldt in Germany. It is generally believed that the establishment of 1809 Berlin University in Germany marks the birth of a university in the modern sense.
