The University of Aberdeen was founded in 1495, when William Elphinstone, Bishop of Aberdeen and Chancellor of Scotland, petitioned Pope Alexander VI on behalf of King James IV to establish King's College. It is one of Scotland's four ancient universities and the fifth-oldest in the English-speaking world. King's College began with 36 staff and students, and in 1497 it set up the first chair of medicine in the English-speaking world. Marischal College was founded separately in 1593 as a Protestant alternative, and the two merged into one university on 15 September 1860.
