History

• Pressure to build a university in the Land of Otranto goes back to the late eighteenth century, when the Jesuits, who had monopolised teaching in the region, were expelled from the Kingdom of Naples by Ferdinand IV in 1767 and their schools were closed.在奥特朗托地区建校的诉求可溯至 18 世纪末，1767 年垄断当地教学的耶稣会士被那不勒斯王国国王费迪南德四世逐出，其所办学校随之关闭。
• The Royal Schools that replaced them marked the transfer of education from a church-based doctrine to a secular system, a Royal University was instituted in the region in the early nineteenth century, and in 1852 the Jesuits regained a Royal Academy that they renamed the College of Lecce.接替耶稣会的皇家学校标志着教育从教会学说转向世俗体系，19 世纪初该地区设立了皇家大学，1852 年耶稣会重获一所皇家学院并将其改名为莱切学院。
• Italian unification disrupted southern education, nearly all the collegi were suppressed and all higher education outlawed, and the College of Lecce lost its teaching posts, so an Ateneo di Scienze Legali was founded on 18 June 1869 under rector Vitaliano Pizzolante and vice-rector Leonardo Stampacchia, an attempt that lasted two years.意大利统一打断了南方的教育体系，几乎所有学院被撤销、高等教育遭到取缔，莱切学院的教席随之取消，1869 年 6 月 18 日在校长维塔利亚诺·皮佐兰特与副校长莱昂纳多·斯达帕基亚主持下创立了法律科学学院，但仅维持两年。
• After two centuries of failed attempts, in April and May 1955 the provincial administration of Lecce set up a university consortium joined by the province itself and most of the surrounding municipalities, with the aim of creating an independent institute of magistero at its own expense pending legal recognition.历经两个世纪的失败尝试，1955 年 4 月至 5 月莱切省行政机构组建了一个大学联合体，联合体成员包括该省本身与周边多数市镇，目标是自筹经费设立一所独立的高等师范学院以等待法律认可。
• Teaching began on 22 November 1955 with all three degree courses proper to the faculty of magistero, in literature, in pedagogy and in foreign languages and literatures, plus a school directed to school supervision, and Giuseppe Codacci Pisanelli became the first rector.课程于 1955 年 11 月 22 日开学，最初开设师范学院三个专业方向的全部学位课程，即文学、教育学、外国语言与文学，并附设一所面向学校督导的专门学校，朱塞佩·科达奇·皮萨内利出任首任校长。
• A faculty of letters and philosophy was inaugurated two years later, but legal recognition of the degrees did not arrive until 1959, and full statalisation followed at the end of the 1967-68 academic year with the institution of a third faculty, that of mathematical, physical and natural sciences.两年后学校设立文学与哲学学院，但学位的法律认可直到 1959 年才到来，1967 至 1968 学年末随着第三个学院即数学、物理与自然科学学院的设立，该校完成全面的国立化。
• It operated as the Free University of Lecce from 1960, and the name Salento entered in 2006 when the university was renamed, a step explained by its expansion across the peninsula through the Brindisi campus.该校自 1960 年起以莱切自由大学的名义运作，2006 年校名中出现「萨兰托」，学校随之更名，此举的背景是该校经由布林迪西校区在半岛范围内的扩展。
• The faculty of economics and banking was inaugurated in 1987, later renamed the Faculty of Economics and Commerce, and in the 1990-91 academic year the courses of the faculty of engineering began, some of its degree programmes moving to Mesagne and giving a strong impetus to a university hub in the province of Brindisi.经济与银行学院于 1987 年设立，后来改称经济与商业学院，1990 至 1991 学年工程学院开始授课，其部分学位项目迁往梅萨涅，为布林迪西省的大学集聚区带来强劲推动力。
• In 1995 a new faculty of foreign languages and literatures inherited the work of the old faculty of magistero, which had been left to run down after the academic bodies chose suppression over the transformation into a faculty of education sciences that the rules had provided for.1995 年新设的外国语言与文学学院承接了原师范学院的工作，此前该学院因学术机构在撤销与按规定转型为教育科学学院之间选择了前者而逐步收缩。
• Two years later the faculty of cultural heritage was created and the 核心机构 of the old magistero was rescued by transforming it into education sciences, while 1998 saw the inauguration of the faculty of law.两年后文化遗产学院成立，原师范学院的 核心机构 通过转型为教育科学学院得以保留，1998 年法学院揭牌。
• A faculty of social, political and regional science was instituted at the Brindisi campus in 2006, and the university renamed itself the University of Salento in September 2006, with the Brindisi faculty of industrial engineering, created earlier, running a master's course in aerospace engineering.2006 年布林迪西校区设立社会、政治与区域科学学院，同年 9 月学校更名为萨兰托大学，而此前在此设立的布林迪西工业工程学院开设有航空航天工程硕士课程。
• The Faculty of Medicine and Surgery MedTec was inaugurated in 2021, and in November 2023 the Academic Senate approved an experimental medicine department that brought together medicine and surgery degree courses and nursing, the latter with a branch in Tricase.医学与手术 MedTec 学院于 2021 年设立，2023 年 11 月校学术委员会批准成立实验医学系，把医学与外科的学位课程与护理专业归入一个单位，护理专业另在特里卡塞设有分部。
• The university's high-level school ISUFI was activated in 1999 on the model of the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa and was recognised by the Ministry of Education, University and Research in 2005 after five years of experiment, and it admits students on the basis of a 27 out of 30 average, at least 250 hours of specific training a year and a semester abroad.该校的高等精英学校 ISUFI 于 1999 年按比萨高等学校的模式设立，经过五年试验后于 2005 年获意大利教育、大学与研究部认可，其录取条件是平均成绩 27 分（满分 30 分）、每年至少 250 小时专门训练以及一学期海外学习。
• In January 2025 the ATHENA University Alliance held its executive board meeting in Lecce for the university's 70th anniversary, with a keynote address by Sergio Mattarella, President of the Republic, and the university marked the occasion by opening its 70th academic year under the theme of the university for the country and the country for the university.2025 年 1 月，ATHENA 大学联盟在莱切举行执行委员会会议纪念该校 70 周年，由意大利共和国总统塞尔焦·马塔雷拉发表主旨演讲，该校以「大学为国家、国家为大学」为主题为建校 70 周年暨新学年揭幕。
• The university has been a partner of the Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change since 2005, and its rector Fabio Pollice has also sat on the board of that centre and of the Puglia Life Sciences Foundation since 2019.该校自 2005 年起是欧洲-地中海气候变化中心的合作方，其校长法比奥·波利切自 2019 年起还担任该中心与普利亚生命科学基金会的理事。
• The sequence of rectors since 1956 runs Giuseppe Codacci Pisanelli from 1956 to 1976, Saverio Mongelli from 1976 to 1979, Mario Marti from 1979 to 1981, Alberto Sobrero from 1981 to 1983, Donato Valli from 1983 to 1992, Angelo Rizzo from 1992 to 2001 and Oronzo Limone from 2001 to 2007.自 1956 年起的历任校长依次为：朱塞佩·科达奇·皮萨内利（1956 至 1976 年）、萨韦里奥·蒙盖利（1976 至 1979 年）、马里奥·马尔蒂（1979 至 1981 年）、阿尔贝托·索布雷罗（1981 至 1983 年）、多纳托·瓦利（1983 至 1992 年）、安杰洛·里佐（1992 至 2001 年）与奥龙佐·利莫内（2001 至 2007 年）。
• The last three have been Domenico Laforgia from 2007 to 2013, Vincenzo Zara from 2013 to 2019 and Fabio Pollice from 2019 to 2025, with Maria Antonietta Aiello taking office on 1 November 2025 for the six-year term 2025 to 2031 as the first woman to lead a university in Apulia.最近三位校长分别是多梅尼科·拉福尔贾（2007 至 2013 年）、文琴佐·扎拉（2013 至 2019 年）与法比奥·波利切（2019 至 2025 年），玛丽亚·安东内拉·艾耶洛于 2025 年 11 月 1 日就任 2025 至 2031 年六年任期，成为普利亚大区首位执掌大学的女性。
• Legal recognition in 1959 came two years after the faculty of letters and philosophy was inaugurated, and the institution then added a third faculty in 1967-68, which was the condition that converted a provincial institute into a state university.1959 年的法律认可比文学与哲学学院的设立晚两年，随后该校在 1967 至 1968 学年增设第三个学院，正是这一步把一所省属学院转变为国立大学。
