He was employed to supervise the education of Antoinette's daughter Catherine, who would later become Catherine of Parthenay (Parthenay is about half-way between Fontenay-le-Comte and Poitiers ). In 1564 Viète took a position in the service of Antoinette d'Aubeterre. After graduating with a law degree in 1560, Viète entered the legal profession but he only continued on this path for four years before deciding to change his career. Given the occupation of his father, it is not surprising that Viète studied law at university.
He attended school in Fontenay-le-Comte and then moved to Poitiers, about 80 km east of Fontenay-le-Comte, where he was educated at the University of Poitiers. Biography François Viète's father was Étienne Viète, a lawyer in Fontenay-le-Comte in western France about 50 km east of the coastal town of La Rochelle.
