There are an infinite number of constellations in the Universe, since any group of stars can constitute a myriad of different shapes according to the viewpoint from which the observer is looking from, and there are a near-infinite number of stars.

If you mean how many classic, named constellations visible from Earth, then the answer is 88 for the English-speaking world. The Chinese, Arabs, Polynesians, Hindus, and aboriginal Australians all have their own constellations as well.
