The University of the Baroque (UOTB) is a public institution of tertiary education with a campus located in Vivaldi. UOTB offers secondary and tertiary degrees in a variety of arts and sciences, with particular notoriety for its quality instruction in the areas of communication, climatic and meteorological sciences, and the information sciences.

UOTB is the second-largest university on northwestern Illuminatia's Baroque Isle, surpassed only by the University of Nocturne. Total enrollment at the University of the Baroque totals 25,100 students. UOTB is among the top choices of graduating primary students seeking further education who are native to the isle; the university is also popular as a destination for secondary and tertiary education for students originally from areas of northwest Illuminatia located directly across the Baroque Channel from Vivaldi, including the city of Verdi.

Students at the University of the Baroque, as with all publicly-funded institutions of higher education, benefit from a guaranteed 100% placement rate into employment, further education, or a research assignment upon graduation from the university thanks to a government-assisted matching system administered by the Office of Assessment and Placement (OAP).

UOTB receives funding for its budget of approximately budget 2,762,000 μ/AU from the Bureau of Education and Enlightenment (BEE) and oversight from the BEE's Office of Curriculum and Programming (OCP).

University of the Baroque maintains the tradition of holding a series of relay races and obstacle course competitions during the final days of the annual academic term. The student body invites a selection of sportsball athletes from across Illuminatia to take part in the competitions with the students to augment their teams.
