History
The first college of what became University of Tripoli was founded in 1957 as the Faculty of Sciences of University of Libya. In 1966 the Faculty of Agriculture was added, and in 1972 the College of Petroleum and Minerals.
In 1973, the University of Libya was split into two independent universities. All the colleges (faculties) located in Tripoli joined the new University of Tripoli while those located in Benghazi joined the new University of Benghazi (later renamed Garyounis University).
In 1976 the University of Tripoli was renamed Al Fateh University after the student unrest in April, 1976, where pro-government students chanted Al Fateh.
In 2007 a separate Al-Fateh University of Medical Sciences was established in Tripoli, that included the colleges of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy and Medical Technology.
The university was the site of an armed student uprising during the Battle of Tripoli, and following the downfall of the Gaddafi government in 2011, Al Fateh University, was renamed back to the original name of University of Tripoli.
Political importance
After the 1969 coup by Gaddafi, Tripoli and Benghazi universities were subjected to a crackdown by the Gaddafi government. From the early 1970s political activity was severely curtailed and by the late 1970s, Gaddafi instructed his followers to arrest any students or staff members who were vocally resistant to his government. Each year until the Gaddafi government downfall in 2011, his close followers used to celebrate the commemoration of these events on the 7th of April.
