The University of Trnava (in Trnava) (Template:Lang-sk) is a college of "university type" based in Trnava, Slovakia.
Historical university
The original Jesuit university was founded in 1635 by the Archbishop of Esztergom, Péter Pázmány. It had a faculty of arts, faculty of theology, faculty of law (since 1667) and faculty of medicine (since 1769). It lasted 142 years in Trnava (Template:Lang-de; Template:Lang-hu) when it was moved to Buda in 1777 and finally to Pest in 1784. Its legal successor is the Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary.

- Faculty of Philosophy and Arts
- Faculty of Education
- Faculty of Health and Social care
- Faculty of Law
and 1 in Bratislava:
