History

The Institut de Préparation aux Affaires was founded in 1955 and was established in the buildings of the former Faculty of Law, Medicine and Arts in Toulouse, on Rue Lautmann. Its primary mission was to train engineers and business executives in modern management techniques through a qualification known as the Certificat d’Aptitude à l’Administration des Entreprises (CAAE).

In the 1970s, the IPA became the Institut d’Administration des Entreprises (IAE Toulouse). Its main missions were:

  • to provide students with training for administrative functions in companies, as well as for senior commercial and accounting careers;
  • to contribute to the professional development of company executives;
  • and to develop links between the university and the business community, particularly in order to foster scientific research in the economic and social fields.

In October 2017, IAE Toulouse changed its name and became Toulouse School of Management[5].
