About

The University of Aberdeen is Scotland's third oldest university, and the UK's fifth. It was formed in the merging of two colleges, King's and Marischal, in 1860. King's College was founded in 1495 by William Elphinstone, the then Bishop of Aberdeen, who used the great European universities of Paris and Bologna as his model.
