Founded in 1956 the IAE Lyon has 7,800 students in 2018 (including 3000 in postgraduate studies), accounting for 27% of the 29,000 students at Lyon 3 University.

The following year the IAE of Lyon was created by governmental decision. At the start the IAE Lyon was a part of the Law and Economics faculty and was located on the Saône's Quays at 15 quai [Claude Bernard](/source/Claude_Bernard). In 1957 the first class graduated. After May 1968, the [Edgar Faure](/source/Edgar_Faure)’s law abolished the existing faculties and replaced them with what is now known as universities. One year later the government granted an exceptional status to the IAE Lyon making it an independent part of the newly created [University Lyon 2](/source/Lumi%C3%A8re_University_Lyon_2). In 1970 the Maîtrise en Sciences de Gestion, a four-year degree in management is created. 1973 the IAE Lyon became a part of Jean Moulin University Lyon 3 created in the same year. In 1975 the first five-year degrees, called Diplôme d’Etudes Supérieures Spécialisées (DESS) and Diplôme d’Etudes Approfondies ([DEA](/source/DEA_(former_French_degree))), are created. They were co-managed by the IAE Lyon, the Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Lyon (future [EM Lyon](/source/%C3%89cole_de_management_de_Lyon)) and the Economics department of the university. These degrees are the predecessors of the current Master's degrees available. During this same year, the first research unit was implemented within the IAE Lyon: the Centre Lyonnais de recherche en Gestion (Management Sciences Centre of Lyon). The school began establishing international exchange programs in the 1980s. In 1981 the first professors’ exchange is organised with the [Carlson School of Management](/source/Carlson_School_of_Management), Minnesota, in the United States. After a major reorganization and growth period in 1982, the IAE of Lyon initiates its first student exchange programme within Europe in 1983 with the [University of Kent](/source/University_of_Kent) in the United Kingdom. The first student exchange outside Europe was organised in 1986 with the [University of Georgia](/source/University_of_Georgia), Athens and the [Georgetown University](/source/Georgetown_University), Washington DC in the United States. After 2000, all the activities of the IAE Lyon were gathered at the ‘Manufacture des Tabacs’ complex. In 2003 the IAE started conforming its programmes to the [Bologna process](/source/Bologna_process) and implementing the LMD. The LMD system is based on three types of degrees: Licence in three years (bachelor), Master in five years and doctorates in eight years (PhD). n the same year, the Equipe Universitaire de Gestion Innovante (EUGINOV) research unit was established, focusing on management practices, and the ISEOR research centre from the Lyon 2 University was transferred to the IAE Lyon. ==Campuses== The IAE Lyon is part of University Jean Moulin - Lyon 3 and is located mainly at the ‘Manufacture des Tabacs’ [campus](/source/campus). ===The ‘Manufacture des Tabacs’ complex=== Since 2000, all of the IAE Lyon activities, except the EUGINOV organisation, are located at the ‘Manufacture des Tabacs’ complex. To face the soaring consumption of tobacco at the start of the 20th century, the French government decided to build a new plant in Lyon on a 25,000m² site of a fortification bought from the army. Started in 1912, the construction was interrupted by the [First World War](/source/World_War_I). Construction resumed in 1920 and was definitively finished in 1932. At this time 2,000 employees produced up to 30 million cigarettes on a daily basis. In 1987, the production was stopped and in July 1990 the [Urban Community of Lyon](/source/Urban_Community_of_Lyon) bought the site for thirty-five million [French franc](/source/French_franc) on behalf of the [Jean Moulin University Lyon 3](/source/Jean_Moulin_University_Lyon_3). The redevelopment of the old building was divided into 6 stages. The first stage was finished in 1993, however, it took 13 years to complete the whole project. At the end of 2004, the building surface available was 55,104 m2, with an added underground car park of 6,603 m2; a total of 61,707 m2. The site is an industrial redevelopment that houses the university's management programs and facilities. This achievement is reflected in the recognition by the [French Minister of Culture](/source/Minister_of_Culture_(France)) of the ‘Manufacture des Tabacs’ complex as a “Patrimoine du XXème siècle”. ===The Bourg-en-Bresse campus=== The IAE Lyon is also present in [Bourg-en-Bresse](/source/Bourg-en-Bresse) ==Academics== IAE Lyon is a member of the IAE, a network of institutes of higher education in business administration and management at more than 30 business schools within public universities in France.{{cite web |title=IAE France |url=https://www.iae-france.fr/en/ |publisher=IAE |access-date=9 February 2022}} Students may enroll in most IAE member Bachelors programs directly after an obtaining a ''[Baccalauréat](/source/Baccalaur%C3%A9at)'', or the equivalent high school diploma for international students, or in a Master's programs directly.{{cite web |title=Archives des International students and studying abroad |url=https://www.iae-france.fr/en/faq/international-students-and-studying-abroad/ |publisher=IAE |access-date=9 February 2022}} Unlike the French ''[Grandes écoles](/source/Grandes_%C3%A9coles)'', public university education is [open admissions](/source/open_admissions), tuition is often more affordable, and registration does not require attendance at a ''[Classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles](/source/Classe_pr%C3%A9paratoire_aux_grandes_%C3%A9coles)'' or ''prépa'' (post-high school preparatory school).{{cite web |title=Pourquoi une integrer écoles d’ingénieurs |url=https://grandes-ecoles.studyrama.com/ecoles-d-ingenieurs/apres-bac |publisher=Studyrama Grandes Écoles|access-date=6 February 2022 |language=Fr}}{{cite web |title=Parcoursup 2020 |url=https://grandes-ecoles.studyrama.com/ecoles-d-ingenieurs/apres-bac/tout-savoir-sur-parcoursup/les-ecoles-d-ingenieurs-preferees-des-bac-s-sur-parcoursup-7902.html |publisher=Studyrama Grandes Écoles|access-date=6 February 2022 |language=Fr}} Some IAE degree programs require that applicants take an exam called the IAE Message Test ''(SIM)'' prior to admittance, but not all programs require this or any test score, although some programs are taught in English and may require additional test scores in English as a second language.{{cite web |title=Faq |url=https://www.iae-france.fr/en/faq/ |publisher=IAE |access-date=9 February 2022}} The ''SIM'' exam covers these areas: general knowledge; economic and managerial culture; comprehension and written expression in French; logical and numerical reasoning; comprehension and written expression in English.{{cite web |title=SIM |url=https://www.iae-message.fr/ |publisher=IAE |access-date=9 February 2022}} As with many IAE business schools, IAE Lyon offers Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral programmes in many academic, business administration and management subjects.{{cite web |title=Formations Archive |url=https://www.iae-france.fr/en/formations/ |publisher=IAE |access-date=9 February 2022}} Higher education degrees in France are organized into three levels thus facilitating international mobility: the ''Licence'' / [Bachelor's](/source/Bachelor's_degrees), [Master's](/source/Master's_degree_in_Europe), and [Doctorate](/source/Doctorate) degrees.
