FOREWORD
The World List of Universities is revised every two years in an attempt to remain up-to-date
in relation to the continuingly rapid development of higher education in all parts of the world.
The Nineteenth Edition includes more than 9000 universities and other institutions of higher
education in 158 countries, and a guide to the principal national and international organizations
concerned with higher education.
For the present edition, the production method and traditional format have been changed
considerably. The updating and typesetting has been carried out on computer by the Publications
Unit of the International Universities Bureau and, in order to develop the World List into a true,
comprehensive directory on higher education, the institution entries are more clearly presented,
and the running texts concerning the national and international bodies altogether more concise
than in previous editions. Many of the revisions are due to recent sweeping changes in Eastern
Europe which have been taken into consideration, wherever feasible, prior to going to press.
Every effort has been made to ensure that the information published is complete and accurate,
and the International Universities Bureau is grateful to central academic bodies and government
departments in many countries and to the relevant international and regional organizations for
their assistance in revising entries and providing new material.
Entries for which recent information has not been received, material contained in the
Eighteenth Edition has been retained.
The listing of institutions and the contents of the descriptive notes are based on information
made available to the International Association of Universities from authoritative sources. They
do not imply any comment by the Association itself. If errors or omissions have occurred,
corrections will be welcomed for inclusion in the next edition of the World List of Universities.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
The World List of Universities has been designed as a concise directory likely to be helpful in
facilitating exchanges throughout the world of higher education. Its contents are arranged in two
parts: the first contains information presented country by country about universities and other
institutions of higher education and about national academic and student bodies; the second deals
with international and regional organizations concerned with higher education.
PART ONE
Institutions and National Organizations
Information is classified under chapter headings for 158 countries and territories. These are
placed in alphabetical order of their names in English, but indexes to both English and French
country names are provided (pages 811-816).
Each chapter begins with a list of the universities and other institutions of higher education in
the country or territory concerned, and this is followed by information about national academic
and student bodies.
(a) Universities and other Institutions of Higher Education
The terms "university" and "institution of higher education", as is well known, carry varying
connotations. The selection of institutions for inclusion in theWo r/d List of Universities has,
therefore, been based principally on the practices of the relevant national academic and
educational bodies.
For countries with a considerable number of institutions, the entries are, as a rule, presented
in two main groups:
(i) Universities (including where relevant technical universities and other multidisciplinary
institutions having full university status);
(ii) Other Institutions of Higher Education.
In most cases, the second group is subdivided into institutions concerned with: Technical
Education; Professional Education; Teacher Training; and General Education.
This classification has been adopted for the practical convenience of those consulting the
World List of Universities, and should in no way be regarded as constituting an attempt at
"evaluation" by the International Association of Universities. It should be noted that
independent schools and faculties of theology have not been included, nor is reference made
to military academies or similar institutions.
For each institution the following information is given: Its name (together with a translation
into English where this appears useful) and postal address; and the date (actual or legal) of
its foundation. In a number of cases two or more dates are given; the first is that of the original
foundation and the subsequent dates are those on which major changes took place, as for
example a college founded in 1917 and accorded full university status in 1936.
Where appropriate, each entry also includes a note on the composition of the institutions by
faculties, colleges, schools, departments or institutes. Abbreviations are used and a bilingual
key to them will be found on pages xiv-xviii. The information given in this way is simply
indicative of the general nature of the institution and does not necessarily cover all principal
fields of study. A Faculty of Medicine, for example, may or may not include dentistry,
pharmacy or nursing; a Faculty of Philosophy covering the humanities may or may not
include the social sciences. More detailed information may be found in another publication
of the International Association of Universities, the International Handbook of Universities,
and its companion volumes, the Commonwealth Unil•ersities Yearbook, issued by the
Association of Commonwealth Universities, London, and American Universities and
Colleges, issued by the American Council of Education, Washington. Descriptions of
university systems can be found in another reference work compiled by the International
Association of Universities for Unesco: World Guide to Higher Education: a comparative
survey of systems, degrees and qualifications.
Institutions marked with an asterisk(*) had been admitted to membership ofthe International
Association of Universities.
