Courses are held throughout the Toulouse Capitole University campus, which hosts all the necessary tools for a quality education (lecture halls, libraries, gymnasiums, multimedia languages laboratories…)

Located at the heart of south-west France, Toulouse enjoys a privileged geographical location, close to the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and the Pyrenees. TSE is located between the Garonne River and the Canal de Brienne near the city’s historical center (a 5 -minute walk from the central Place du Capitole). The campus includes two different sites: the Former “Tobaccco factory”, where TSE’S Master’s students attend all their classes, and “Arsenal”, where university central services are located, and the new TSE building, where the school administration is hosted. Students can thus easily enjoy the charms of the “pink city” with its diverse historical resources, remarkable heritage and a variety of cultural and sports activities on offer. Toulouse is a business-oriented, lively, young and cosmopolitan city where shops and sunny coffee terraces abound. Toulouse is also known for its strong economic dynamism and stands out as a hub of excellence for the aerospace industry (Airbus, ATR, Alcatel Alenia Space, etc.). It is also the home of many innovative firms in other industrial sectors such as biotechnologies (Pierre Fabre, Sanofi-Aventis, Ciba-Vision,etc.) and electronics (Continental, Motorola,etc.).
