In the universities of Western Europe, the first six years, which led to a bachelor's degree, included the liberal arts, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, Music Theory, grammar, logic, and rhetoric. Following this, a student was able to go for a master's or doctor's degree, and the education could typically be in law, theology, or medicine.
You should remember that the universities were not all identical, and the were differences that ranged from subtle to important. The western universities were not all run by the Church, and those that were secular had a different approach than Church run institutions. The University of Constantinople, which was far older than any of the western European institutions, was also constituted differently from all of them. There were also Muslim universities, and these were even more different in how they were set up.

In the Middle Ages, European universities primarily focused on teaching subjects related to theology, law, medicine, and the liberal arts. The curriculum emphasized religious studies, with a strong emphasis on Aristotelian philosophy and logic. Latin was the language of instruction, and lectures and debates were the main methods of teaching. Students would typically spend several years studying these subjects before earning their degrees.
