[edit] History
The great literate and jurist Cino from Pistoia, living in Marche in the years 1319-21, and in Camerino in the spring of 1321, remembers the territory blooming with juridical schools. Camerino has been a center of learning since no later than 1200 offering degrees in civil law, canonical law, medicine and literary studies. Gregorio XI took the decision upon the request of Gentile III da Varano with the papal edict of 29 January 1377 directed to the commune and to the people authorizing Camerino to confer (after appropriate examination) bachelor and doctoral degrees with apostolic authority. On the 15th of July of the same year, Benedict XIII founds the Universitas Studii Generalis with the faculties of theology, jurisprudence, medicine and mathematics; On April 13 th 1753 the emperor Francesco Stefano I of the of Habsburg Lorena extends the validity of the degrees from Camerino to the whole territory of the Holy Roman Empire and confers to the rector the title of palatine count. In 1861, after annexation by the Kingdom of Italy, the university is proclaimed "free" and it remains such up to 1958, when it becomes a State University.
