Communauté d'universités et établissements de Toulouse


The Communauté d'universités et établissements de Toulouse, or the Toulouse University System, formerly the Federal University of Toulouse Midi-Pyrénées, is the association of universities and higher education institutions for institutions of higher education and research in the French region of Midi-Pyrénées.
The three universities, along with other institutions, participated in the reconstruction of the University of Toulouse – a joint structure of 107,000 students including 4,500 doctoral students, 17,000 staffs and 145 research laboratories. The mission was entrusted to Patrick Lévy, former president of the Grenoble Alpes University, accompanied by Philippe Raimbault, president of the Federal University of Toulouse Midi-Pyrénées.

History

The university system was created as a ComUE according to the 2013 Law on Higher Education and Research (France), effective 1 July 2015. It replaced the pôle de recherche et d'enseignement supérieur which had been organized in 2007 to coordinate higher education and research in the region.
In 2021, Patrick Lévy conducted an audit of the university site, which proposed changes. In 2022, this process led to the evolution of the institution towards the status of an experimental ComUE. On 1 January 2023 the Université fédérale Toulouse Midi-Pyrénées became the Université de Toulouse.
