The University of Zurich (UZH, (ドイツ語:Universität Zürich)), located in the city of Zürich, is the largest university in Switzerland, with over 26,000 students. It was founded in 1833 from the existing colleges of theology, law, medicine and a new faculty of philosophy. Currently, the university has 7 faculties: Philosophy, Human Medicine, Economic Sciences, Law, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Theology and Veterinary Medicine. The university offers the widest range of subjects and courses than any other Swiss higher education institution. ==History== The University of Zurich was founded on April 29, 1833,〔 〕 when the existing colleges of theology, the ''Carolinum'' founded by Huldrych Zwingli in 1525, law and medicine were merged with a new faculty of Philosophy. It was the first university in Europe to be founded by the state rather than a monarch or church. A stormy event in the University's early years was the 1839 appointment of the German theologian David Friedrich Strauss to its Chair of Theology - which caused a major controversy, since Strauss argued that the miracles in the New Testament were mythical retellings of normal events as supernatural happenings.〔''The Life of Jesus, Critically Examined'' by David Friedrich Strauss 2010 ISBN 1-61640-309-8 pages 39–43 and 87–91〕〔''The Making of the New Spirituality'' by James A. Herrick 2003 ISBN 0-8308-2398-0 pages 58–65〕〔''Familiar Stranger: An Introduction to Jesus of Nazareth'' by Michael J. McClymond (Mar 22, 2004) ISBN 0802826806 page 82〕〔See (Douglas R McGaughey, "On D.F. Strauß and the 1839 Revolution in Zurich" )〕 Eventually, the authorities offered Strauss a pension before he had a chance to start his duties. The university allowed women to attend philosophy lectures from 1847, and admitted the first female doctoral student in 1866. The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine was added in 1901, the second-oldest such faculty in the world. In 1914, the university moved to new premises designed by the architect Karl Moser on Rämistrasse 71.〔.
