Origins Rooted in the Renaissance
UV was established with royal approval from the Catholic Monarchs. It was born in a time when humanist thought began to flourish across Europe. From the start, it focused on essential disciplines such as medicine, law, theology, and the humanities.
Its original building, La Nau, still stands as a symbol of academic tradition and civic life in the city.
A Leading Research Institution Today

It consistently ranks among the top 300 universities worldwide in the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU). Its international reputation is grounded in research excellence, public engagement, and active partnerships across Europe.
The UV Science Park (Parc Científic de la Universitat de València) is a key engine of regional innovation. It hosts over 90 start-ups and companies working in biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and green technologies. This environment promotes collaboration between academia and industry.
Global Collaboration and Academic Impact
