History

University Lyon 3 was established in the early 1970s (26 July 1973), part of the reorganisation of higher education following the events of May 68 that rocked the academic world. In 1969, the old university of Lyon was first split into a university dedicated to medicine and natural sciences (Claude Bernard University Lyon 1) and another one regrouping all other faculties, which was soon separated between what became Lumière University Lyon 2, a university for social sciences and arts, primarily located in a suburban campus, and Jean Moulin University Lyon 3, a downtown university centered around the faculties of law and philosophy the school of management. The new university was named after Jean Moulin, a wartime resistance leader who was captured in Lyon. It is one of the largest institutions within the University of Lyon attracting over 27,000 students, including over 4,000 international students.{{cite web |title=Imprimer Partager Une université en sciences humaines et sociales au cœur de Lyon |url=https://www.univ-lyon3.fr/l-universite-jean-moulin |website=Universite de Lyon 3 |access-date=2 August 2022}} It specialises in the humanities and social sciences.
