For more than two centuries, the University of Louisville has aimed to bring vital knowledge and prosperity to our city. As one of the first city-owned, public universities in the nation, our dynamic connection with Louisville has flourished, fueling success for both. UofL is redefining what success means for thousands of students and making impacts that make a difference through research and innovation. In 2023, UofL is celebrating 225 years of Cardinal Pride, harkening back to the 1798 beginnings of higher education in Louisville.
