The University of Lleida (officially in Catalan: Universitat de Lleida) is a university based in Lleida, Catalonia, Spain. It was the first university founded in Catalonia and in the ancient Crown of Aragon. It was founded in 1300, using the name of Estudi General de Lleida.

It was reestablished on 12 December 1991, after a lapse of three hundred years, by the Catalan Parliament. In addition to the historical central edifice located in Rambla d'Aragó, new campuses and buildings have been added.
