Sažetak

The goal of this article is a research of the basic ideas of Newman´s understanding of Universitywith a special stress on a relationship between University and intellectual development ofthe individual. Newman thought that university education can offer to an individual specificformation of the intellectual abilities which other kinds of education cannot. Reason for this hesees in the particularity of the University as a place in which a person has a chance to encounterdiverse sciences and scientific theories, all of which offer an aspect of the reality and by unitingall of them, an individual has an opportunity to create an comprehensive image of the realitywhich he would lack if her were to research only one science. The knowledge which is necessarilyconnected to the truth, Newman sees as the object and the summit of the accomplishment of thehuman mind. Therefore, a rich cognoscent life allows not just a more perfect way of existing, butpositively affects the society in which such an individual lives.
