Our answer to those who say the times are dire: Brave the way!
We will resolutely stand at the forefront of innovative practices. We will serve as a springboard for ideas that promote the common good, encouraging discovery and learning every step of the way, anticipating tomorrow’s challenges and creating possible solutions across all disciplines, and cooperating in order to transform.
This is what we must do today, as other generations have done before us. A leading university such as ours must continue to play a key role in building Quebec, Canada, and the world.
We have the ambition, the expertise, and the will to undertake this task. Your support provides us with the way to achieve it.
