University of Zadar (Sveučilište u Zadru)

Re-established in 2002 as Croatia's first independent comprehensive university outside the Zagreb-federated structure, the University of Zadar traces its institutional heritage to 1396 — when Dominican friars founded a studium generale (advanced theological-philosophical school) in Zadar. This places its claimed heritage among the oldest in Central Europe, alongside the Old University of Leuven and Vienna. Approximately 6,500 students. Zadar's UNESCO-recognised old town and Roman-Byzantine-Venetian-Italian-Croatian heritage layers make the university particularly distinguished in humanities, archaeology, and Mediterranean studies.

Always confirm a university's current accreditation with the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an endorsement.
