The King Michael I University of Life Sciences (Romanian: Universitatea de Științele Vieții „Regele Mihai I”; abbreviated USVT), known until 2022 as the University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Banat, is a public university in Timișoara, Romania, which specializes in life sciences and veterinary medicine. It was named in honor of King Michael I of Romania. The existence of USVT is related to the establishment of the Faculty of Agronomy, within the Polytechnic Institute of Timișoara, by Law no. 617 promulgated by King Michael I on 30 July 1945. In 1948, the Faculty of Agronomy was transformed into an Agronomic Institute. In the same year, the Institute of Zootechnics and Veterinary Medicine was established in Arad, with two faculties: Zootechnics and Veterinary Medicine. In 1955, the Faculty of Zootechnics was transferred to the Agronomic Institute in Timișoara, and in 1957, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine was integrated into a similar faculty in Bucharest. In 1957, the Faculty of Zootechnics was transformed into a section of the Faculty of Agronomy and functioned until 1962 under the name of the Faculty of Agriculture and Zootechnics. In 1962, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine was established within Timișoara's Agronomic Institute. In 1968, by the Order of the Minister of Education no. 80646, the Faculty of Zootechnics was re-established, the Agronomic Institute functioning, until 1987, with three faculties: Agriculture, Zootechnics and Veterinary Medicine.
