UNIVERSITY OF TOULOUSE
The 'University of Toulouse' is one of the oldest universities in Europe.
The formation of the University of Toulouse was imposed on Count Raymond VII as a part of the Treaty of Paris in 1229 ending the crusade against the Albigensians. As he was suspected of sympathizing with the heretics, Raymond VII had to finance the teaching of theology. Bishop Foulques de Toulouse was among the founders of the University. Among its first lecturers were:
★ Jean de Garlande
★ Roland of Cremona
Other faculties (law, medicine) were added later. Initially, the University was located in the center of the city, together with the ancestors of student residences, the colleges. All provincial universities of France (including that of Toulouse) were suppressed in 1793. There was no university in Toulouse until the end of the 19th century.
In 1969, Toulouse University split into three separate branches and numerous specialised institutions of higher education. The three branches are:
