Abstract
European universities are centennial organizations with a well-established tradition for the generation and transmission of knowledge that goes back to, at least, the tenth century when the first universities appeared inEurope, evolving from medieval monasteries in cities like Bologna, Paris, Salamanca, and Oxford. Prior to the European-type university, even before the Christian era, other centers of studies existed in ancient Greece, China, India, Arabia, and Mesoamerica (Perkin 2006).
