Université Blaise Pascal
History
It was founded in 1854, as part of Clermont-Ferrand University.
The Blaise Pascal University was created by the division of the University of Clermont-Ferrand in two entities following a 1976 decree.
In 1987 it was named for mathematician, scientist, and philosopher Blaise Pascal, who was born in Clermont.
