The University of Alabama (also known as Alabama, UA or colloquially as 'Bama) is a public coeducational university located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA. Founded in 1831, UA is the flagship campus of the University of Alabama System. Within Alabama, it is often called the Capstone. UA is the senior doctoral university and as of 2006 the largest university in the state. It is one of the state's three major research universities, along with academic and athletic rivals Auburn University and the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB).

Alabama offers programs of study in 12 academic divisions leading to bachelor's, master's, Education Specialist, and doctoral degrees. The only publicly-supported law school in Alabama is at UA. (The state's other law schools at Samford University and Faulkner University, as well as the independent Miles Law School and Birmingham School of Law, are all private institutions.) Other academic programs unavailable elsewhere in Alabama include doctoral programs in anthropology, library and information studies, metallurgical and material engineering, music, Romance languages, and social work.

As of fall 2006, Alabama has an enrollment of 23,878 students and its president is Dr. Robert Witt.
