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.[3] It specialises in the humanities and social sciences.
