Catholic dogma and its teachings used to dominate the knowledge imparted in many schools during the middle ages. So one of the major contributions of European universities to the Scientific Revolution was that these universities started to impart many different topics other than Catholic dogmas. European universities were open to new ideas and information that supported the ideas of the Scientific Revolution, as it was the case of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge in England or the University of Paris, in France.
