about University of Bristol
Overview
Founded in 1876, the University of Bristol combines academic excellence with an independent and forward-thinking spirit.
Bristol was the first UK university to declare a climate emergency. With an ambitious green strategy and innovative environmental research, sustainability remains key to our vision of the future.
History
Before the University of Bristol, there was University College, Bristol
University College, Bristol existed from 1876 to 1909 and was the precursor to the University of Bristol.
University College, Bristol finally opened its doors at 9 am on Tuesday 10 October 1876 in rented premises at 32 Park Row. Initially there were two professors and five lecturers offering courses in 15 subjects. The College was open to men and women on the same basis (except in medicine). During the first session, 99 day students registered (30 men and 69 women) and 238 evening ones (143 men and 95 women).
On 24 May 1909, 33 years after University College opened, the Charter, approved by King Edward VII, came into effect. It was a day of celebration across Bristol.
