The University of Palermo is a public research university based in Palermo, Italy. It was officially founded in 1806 and is among the largest and oldest academic institutions in Sicily. Higher education in the city dates back to 1498, when courses in medicine and law were first taught, and the Jesuits later awarded degrees in theology and philosophy. After the unification of Italy in 1860 the institution was modernized under the influence of the chemist Stanislao Cannizzaro. Since 1984 its main administrative seat has been Palazzo Steri, and the Orto Botanico di Palermo forms part of the university.
