University

The University is a building available in Age of Empires II in the Castle Age.

Units
The University does not train units. It is used purely for upgrades and technologies.

Technologies
Technologies are the primary reason for building a University. The technologies available are primarily structural (eg Masonry and Architecture). In addition, Chemistry is researched from the University, which is one of the most important technologies on the game, as it enables Gunpowder Units (eg the Cannon Galleon and Bombard Cannon) to be created. You also reasearch Bombard Tower from here.

Upgrades
The only upgrades available from the University are that of the towers. It is here that you can upgrade the Watch Tower to a Guard Tower and Keep, and you also research the Bombard Tower technology here.
