The origin of The Complutense University dates back to the late 13th century, when Sancho IV of Castile granted the Archbishop of Toledo, Gonzalo García Gudiel, a licence to create the General School of Study in Alcalá (Estudio de Escuelas Generales de Alcalá) in the city of Alcalá de Henares in the spring of 1293.
In the academic year 1509-1510, the Complutense already operated with five major schools: Arts and Philosophy, Theology, Canon Law, Philology and Medicine. The university was influenced by Renaissance thought and the ideals of humanism against the old conception of the medieval universities. The prestige of the studies and teachers at the Complutense became the model on which new universities in Latin America would be established. The golden era of the university lasted until the seventeenth century, when its decline began as a result of the effects of the Counter-Reformation. Up until then, the university had been the core of humanistic thought for the Spanish Monarchy. Enlightenment Reforms unsuccessfully attempted to overcome the decline of the university at this time. Until well into the 18th century, higher education was based on the scholastic method of exposition and debate. In order to overcome this unsustainable situation, the reform for study programmes was proposed in 1770, during the Reign of Charles III and faced strong resistance from the universities. During the Enlightenment period and according to the centralization policy supported by the Bourbon Monarchy, some new centres were established in which research and specialized education began to share the same space. The outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789, as well as the subsequent political and social instability which led to the War of Independence and the Age of Absolutism, spelled the end of the reforming principles of the Enlightenment.
