The Leonardo de Vinci University Center (French: Pôle universitaire Léonard-de-Vinci) is a French private university cluster located at La Défense.

The Leonardo de Vinci University Center, a higher education University center, has been created in 1995 by the Hauts-de-Seine general council, managed by Charles Pasqua: it is thus often colloquially nicknamed the “Pasqua University" (Fac Pasqua).
