In 1985, the University of Paris-Nanterre set up a branch in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines that became the Faculty of Law, Economics, Languages and the Humanities and Social Sciences. Two years later, a branch of the University of Pierre and Marie Curie and a technology center with an Institut Universitaire de Technologies (IUT) and research laboratories were set up in Versailles , initially in Vélizy , and in the following years in Rambouillet and Mantes-la-Jolie .
The University of Versailles-St-Quentin-en-Yvelines, founded on July 22, 1991, brings together all of these institutions.
