Agropolis-Museum was a museum describing the global story of people, food and agriculture. It was located in Montpellier, France, but had to close in July 2010 due to a lack of funding. Agropolis-Museum was conceived as a museum of the world's food and agricultures by fr:Louis Malassis in 1986, and enjoyed the support of the scientific community of Montpellier. In a building that was inaugurated in 1993, several museal sections were successively added to constitute a top level scientific and pedagogic entity. Agropolis presented the history of early food gathering, as well as mini-exhibits on many of the world's fruits, vegetables and food animals. In one set of exhibits, visitor could 'meet' eight farmers from around the world, see how their homes might look and hear their stories on video. Another exhibition recreated some of the world's food and drink preparations, for example, the tea ceremony in Japan, pasta making in Italy, and coffee rituals in Ethiopia. At the core of the building there was a permanent sculptural exhibition called "The Banquet of Humanity", or "The Dining Table of the World". Eight couples sit at a round table set in furrowed ground. At the center is water and, perched atop the water, the Earth. The couples represent three poor countries, three average income countries and two rich countries. The rich are from Japan and France, the poorest from Somalia. Outside the circle there is another couple, excluded from the table. The work, by Henri Rouvieres, is intended to illustrate the food problems in the world.

It is one of the three successor universities to the University of Montpellier, specialising in the arts, languages and social sciences. The university is a member of the Coimbra Group, an association of long-established European multidisciplinary universities of high international standard.

École polytechnique universitaire de Montpellier (Polytech Montpellier, formerly Institut des sciences de l'ingénieur de Montpellier) is a French engineering College created in 1969.The school trains engineers in eight majors : Computer Science and Management Materials Science and Engineering Electrical Engineering Water Science and Engineering Energetic - Renewables Energies Food Science and Engineering Mechanical Engineering and Interaction Energectics and Renewable EnergiesLocated in Montpellier since 2012, Polytech Montpellier is a public higher education institution.

Montpellier 2 University (Université Montpellier 2) was a French university in the académie of Montpellier. It was one of the three universities formed in 1970 from the original University of Montpellier. Its main campus neighbors the Montpellier 3 University's main campus, and for this reason the nearest tramway station is named "Universities of Sciences and Literature" rather than "University of Sciences". In January 2015, Montpellier 1 University and Montpellier 2 University merged into the Montpellier University (Université de Montpellier).

The University Hospital of Montpellier, CHU de Montpellier, is the oldest medical faculty in Europe, part of the University of Montpellier. It has been rated the 6th best hospital in France. It employs about 11,000 people and is the biggest employer in the region. There are 14 medical activity departments and very substantial research activity.Emergency services at the hospital were reorganized in November 2022, largely as a result of pressures resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic in France.

The Montpellier 1 University (Université Montpellier 1) is a French university, in the Academy of Montpellier. It is one of the three successor universities to the University of Montpellier following the split in 1970. In January 2015, Montpellier 2 University and Montpellier 1 University merged again to reform University of Montpellier.

The École Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Montpellier, or ENSCM, is one of the French Grandes Ecoles, situated in Montpellier. Although it may share academic staff and research activities with the University as well as research bodies such as CNRS, the ENSCM has a particular status as an independent body with its own research laboratories. Teaching chemistry in Montpellier started in 1676 with the creation of the first chair of chemistry at the University of Medicine. Later on, in 1803 the School of Pharmacy was established with a chair of Chemistry and then the Faculty of Science in 1809. The original Institute of Chemistry was founded in 1889 in order to gather the professors who were teaching the same subjects in different Faculties. In 1934, it left the old historic centre to settle in larger and more functional new buildings. It also acquired new facilities on a second site, 3 kilometers away from the main one, called "La Galéra", which is equipped with a kilo-lab and on a third site, close to Montpellier 2 University : the "Institut Européen des Membranes". Since 2017, the ENSCM has moved into its new premises within the Pole Balard Formation located on Avenue du Professeur Emile Jeanbrau, just beside the "Institut Européen des Membranes".The ENSCM provides high level training for engineers and researchers in Chemistry and is renowned for its research activities in the following fields: Macromolecular Chemistry (particularly Heterochemistry) Soft Chemistry Design and development of solids (macromolecules, hybrid materials, catalytic materials and membranes), study of the properties and uses of these materials.Research is carried out in “Unités Mixtes de Recherche” UMR 5076 : Molecular and Macromolecular Heterochemistry UMR 5618 : Catalytic Materials and Catalysis in Organic Chemistry UMR 5635 : Institut Européen des Membranes.Some ENSCM Professors and researchers are members of a team carrying out research in the field of Biology and Health : Health Pharmacology and Biotechnologies Centre, CNRS, Montpellier 2 University, University of Montpellier. The ENSCM is also a member of the “Fédération Gay Lussac” – network of “Grandes Ecoles” gathering 17 Schools of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. Within this network, the ENSCM ranks very high both by the level of the student it recruits and the importance of the research activities carried out in its internationally renowned laboratories.
