In 1965, the Minister of National Education decided to establish three new university campuses in Toulouse, aiming to position the city as France's second-largest university hub. The team of Candilis, Josic, and Woods won the urban planning competition for Toulouse-Le Mirail in 1961, which involved designing a new town with 25,000 housing units for 100,000 residents, centered around the Château du Mirail. Initial designs were completed in 1966, with construction culminating in 1971.
