AmsterdamAsNetherlandsThe capital of China, whether in history or today, is the economic and political center of the country.The Amsterdam River flows through the center of the city. Since a group of residents settled by the river in the middle of the 13th century, the city of Amsterdam is named for this river.Today, Amsterdam, with a population of 750000, is an internationalmetropolisThere is an atmosphere of "small town stories" everywhere. Walking beside the canal, you can see one well preserved ancient building after another in various historical periods.There is a saying among the Dutch: nothing is impossible to happen in Amsterdam.Here, ancient and modern, elegant and popular, rich and poor, contradict each other but can be at peace.The University of Amsterdam is a spirit of thought bred in such a city.
It is generally believed that the University of Amsterdam began with Athenaeum Illustre, which was founded in 1632. The school was originally focused on teaching history and philosophy. Since then, it has successively established medical, legal and theological schools.At that time, the school was still small, with no more than 300 students.

In the 1730s, after 80 years of the War of Independence, the Dutch overthrewSpainIts golden age has come.Many people came to Amsterdam to settle down.These new immigrants brought knowledge and wealth, and Amsterdam became the center of Europe at that time.It also became a paradise for young people at that time to pursue new knowledge.It was originally a woman in the center of AmsterdamMonasteryOn January 8, 1632, an unusual speech made this place an academic palace in the minds of Amsterdam people. The speakers were two very famous scholars in Europe at that time, scientists Kaspar Balars andanthropologistAt the invitation of the mayor at that time, there was no higher education institution in Amsterdam at that time. People hoped to build an institution of higher learning by virtue of the reputation and voice of scholars.After this speech, a school named Athens Academy was born, which means "bright school".This is also the origin of the University of Amsterdam. Balars and Worth are also regarded as the two earliest professors of the university.But Athens College can not be regarded as a real university, because it does not have the qualification to grant a doctorate.At that time, students usually held classes at the professor's home, and this auditorium in the monastery was more used as a place for public reports, speeches and debates than a place for classes.

In 1815, Athenaeum Illustre was recognized as a higher education institution.In 1877, the school was renamed Gemeentelijke Universiteit van Amsterdam (AmsterdamMunicipal University）The appointment of professors must be approved by the city council, and the mayor manages the operation of the school.Due to the progressive style adopted by the Amsterdam City Council at that time, the municipal university obtained greater academic freedom.It was not until 1877 that Athens College became a municipal university in Amsterdam that it was eligible to award the highest degree.However, at this time, the university was still a local institution. The professors were appointed by the municipal department, and the mayor also served as the chairman of the university management committee.

This system did not change until the 1960s. In 1960, after the Netherlands University Education Regulations were passed, Ada had propertyAutonomy，Education fundsThe state is responsible for the financing of the University of Amsterdam. At this time, the University of Amsterdam finally got rid of the hat of the city and became a realnational university。In 1961, the government took over the finance of the university, and the city university was renamed the University of Amsterdam.In May 1969, students once occupied the administrative center of the university, Maagdenhuis, and asked students to participate in school affairs.In the 1960s and 1980s, the University of Amsterdam was regarded as the NetherlandsStudent movementCenter of.
Today, the monastery where the two professors made the opening speeches has become a university museum. It has not the noise of the old days when the guests were full. It just silently watches the students coming and going by the canal, witnessing the development of the university day by day.
The beginning of the 20th century was the most proud era of the University of Amsterdam.Four in historyNobel PrizeThe winners all stood out in this period. Their research achievements not only made great contributions to the progress of human science, but also made the University of Amsterdam famous.
