History[edit]
The University of Aberdeen was established in 1495 by William Elphinstone, Bishop of Aberdeen, with the founding of King's College. It was created to train doctors, teachers, and clergy for the Kingdom of Scotland. In 1593, Marischal College was founded by George Keith, 5th Earl Marischal. The two colleges were merged in 1860 to form the modern University of Aberdeen.
