Newcastle University

The University can trace its origins to a School of Medicine and Surgery (later the College of Medicine), established in 1834, and to Armstrong College, founded in 1871 for the teaching of physical sciences.

These two colleges formed one division of the federal University of Durham, the Durham Colleges forming the other division. The Newcastle Colleges merged to form King’s College in 1937. In 1963, when the federal University was dissolved, King’s College became the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, and latterly, Newcastle University
