=== Higher education ===
Two universities are seated in Bilbao. The older is the [[University of Deusto]], founded by the [[Society of Jesus]] in 1886. It took its name from the then independent municipality of [[Deusto]], annexed to Bilbao in 1925. It was the only higher education institute in the borough until the establishment in 1968 of the University of Bilbao, later to become the [[University of the Basque Country]] in 1980. This public university, which has a presence in the three provinces of the autonomous community, has its main Biscayan campus in the municipality of [[Leioa]], although the Technical and Business faculties are based in Bilbao.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.ehu.es/p200-content/es/contenidos/enlace/listado_centros/es_centros/centros.html | title = Centros | date = 20 September 2006 | publisher = [[University of the Basque Country|UPV-EHU]] | access-date = 5 December 2010 | archive-date = 23 September 2010 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100923014746/http://www.ehu.es/p200-content/es/contenidos/enlace/listado_centros/es_centros/centros.html | url-status = live }}</ref> Since 2014, [[Mondragon University]] has also a presence in the city through the innovation and entrepreneurial centre Bilbao Innovation Factory.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mondragon.edu/en/actuality/news/news/mondragon-unibertsitatea-opens-a-branch-in-bilbao |title=Mondragon Unibertsitatea opens a branch in Bilbao |publisher=[[University of Mondragón]] |access-date=3 August 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150904074127/http://www.mondragon.edu/en/actuality/news/news/mondragon-unibertsitatea-opens-a-branch-in-bilbao |archive-date=4 September 2015  }}</ref> In 2015, the offer of higher education in the city was expanded with the foundation of Dantzerti, the Higher School of Dramatic Arts and Dance of the Basque Country.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.deia.com/2015/09/24/ocio-y-cultura/cultura/dantzerti-inicia-su-andadura-oficial-buscando-retener-el-talento-en-euskadi | title = Dantzerti inicia su andadura oficial buscando retener el talento en Euskadi | publisher = Deia | access-date = 18 October 2015 | archive-date = 29 September 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150929090318/http://www.deia.com/2015/09/24/ocio-y-cultura/cultura/dantzerti-inicia-su-andadura-oficial-buscando-retener-el-talento-en-euskadi | url-status = dead }}</ref>
