Pour promouvoir l'education superieure, Napoleon etablit (a suivre...)


Explanation:
Pour promouvoir (ou bien "remedier a la situation dans le domaine de") l'education superieure, Napoleon etablit des universites et des Grandes Ecoles.

Comments: 'to help better', the translation depends on the situation in that field.

Also chose the time for the verb 'etablir'.

PS: Watch the accents!
