It holds triple accreditation-EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA-and is a member of both the Federal University of Toulouse Midi-Pyrénées and the Conférence des grandes écoles (CGE).

Research is focused on emerging sectors; the school has developed two clusters: the first dedicated to Artificial Intelligence and data analysis, the second to aerospace mobility.

In 1902, a mixed committee representing the Chamber of Commerce and the municipality of Toulouse, opened a year of preparation for the entrance examination for a future grande école.

In 1947, a competitive examination, the structure of which is common to the twelve French business schools (grandes écoles de commerce), was set up.

[17][18] Although they are more expensive than public universities in France, Grandes Écoles typically have much smaller class sizes and student bodies, and many of their programs are taught in English.

International internships, study abroad opportunities, and close ties with government and the corporate world are a hallmark of the Grandes Écoles.

[19][20] Degrees from TBS are accredited by the Conférence des Grandes Écoles[21] and awarded by the Ministry of National Education (France) (French: Le Ministère de L'éducation Nationale).

[32] The TBS Research Centre also partners with doctoral programme students from the Toulouse School of Management, and serves on its board of directors.

Core courses include: marketing, CSR / sustainable development, finance and accounting, economics, law, entrepreneurship, human resources, supply chain, and multicultural management.
