Trinity College, with its distinctive squares and quadrangles, stands in the heart of Dublin. It was founded by Queen Elizabeth I in 1592 and is Ireland's oldest university. Trinity College houses a major library of ancient manuscripts, including the Book of Kells.

Institution of higher learning for those who have completed primary and secondary education.

In the USA there are both state universities (funded by the individual states) and private universities. The oldest universities in the USA are all private: Harvard 1636, William and Mary 1693, Yale 1701, Pennsylvania 1741, and Princeton 1746. Typically, a university offers advanced degrees in addition to the four-year bachelor's degree; is made up of colleges, such as liberal arts, sciences, law, medicine; and offers special degrees such as divinity, technical, and vocational as well.
