Concordia
University
Concordia is a large, urban university, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
The university has two campuses, set approximately 7 km apart: Sir
George Williams Campus is in the downtown core of Montreal, and
Loyola Campus is in the residential west-end of Montreal.
Although founded in 1974, the university traces its academic roots
back to the early 20th century, with the development of the Jesuit-run
Loyola College and the YMCA-based Sir George Williams University.
Concordia is proud of its tradition of accessibility and concern
for the individual. We value inter-disciplinary approaches to learning,
and we are dedicated to offering the best possible scholarship,
research and training for the real world.
Concordia’s more than 180 undergraduate programs are divided
into four Faculties: Arts and Science, Engineering and Computer
Science, Fine Arts, and the John Molson School of Business. Students
are enrolled in one of these Faculties, but they may take courses
from any of the others as part of their studies. Many programs also
offer a “co-operative” component, whereby students get
work experience while they study.
In addition, the School of Graduate Studies offers more than 70
programs leading to Master’s and doctoral degrees, as well
as a variety of graduate diplomas and certificates for professionals
seeking to upgrade their knowledge and skills.
