The 1975 Summer Universiade, also known as the VIII Summer Universiade, took place in Rome, Italy.
The 1975 Universiade only featured athletics, other disciplines having been cancelled, as the original host Yugoslavia was unable to hold the event. It was therefore referred to as the World University Championships in athletics.
