Places and spaces enabling research
There are nearly fifty at UUÖ±²¥. On the downtown campus, you will benefit from facilities created for 21st-century research, such as the open-concept and the high-tech music building, . For over a century, , a lush oasis on Montreal’s West Island, bordering the St. Lawrence River, has given students ‘living laboratories’ to explore the interactions between urban space and the natural environment.
Our four affiliated hospitals in Montreal, and our network of health partners across Quebec, provide a window into front-line clinical care. Abroad, the hosts scientists and students interested in researching tropical marine and terrestrial habitats, while the on Central Axel Heiberg Island gives access to glacier, ice cap, and polar desert environments.
