The University of Barcelona is one of the oldest universities in Europe. A medical school opened in the city in 1401, and the full university was chartered in 1450. For centuries it was the only university in Catalonia; the Autonomous University of Barcelona and the Polytechnic University of Catalonia both grew out of it in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Its neo-Romanesque main building in Plaça Universitat is still one of the city's landmarks.

UB is a large, research-intensive public university with faculties spread across Barcelona. It is strongest in medicine and health sciences, biology and biomedicine, chemistry, physics, psychology and economics, and it works closely with major hospitals such as the Hospital Clínic. It consistently ranks among Spain's top two or three universities in global tables.
