L'université de Princeton aussi appelée Princeton est une université américaine privée située dans la ville de Princeton (New Jersey), aux États-Unis. Fondée en 1746, elle est le quatrième plus ancien établissement d'enseignement supérieur des États-Unis.

Arrivant parmi les premières universités au monde dans la plupart des classements internationaux, elle jouit d'un grand prestige1. Elle est membre de la Ivy League où elle entretient une rivalité historique avec l'université Harvard et l'université Yale2.

Elle a formé 65 prix Nobel, 15 médailles Fields, 21 National Medal of Science, 11 National Humanities Medal, 3 présidents américains et 12 juges à la Cour suprême des États-Unis.
