Welcome to Université de Montréal's research Web site. Intended for both internal and external publics, this site is both a window for research and knowledge transfer at Université de Montréal and a source of information for professors, researchers and students (funding opportunities, administration, intellectual property, ethics, etc.)

Research at our university is carried out by more than 2,000 researchers, over 300 groups (centres, chairs, institutes) as well as more than 20 affiliated research centres. These activities cover all the major research fields and leading-edge sectors, be it in terms of basic research, applied research or translational research. To know more about the range of expertise available at Université de Montréal, I invite you to consult our repertoire of researchers and research units (in French only).

This site is also a tool for knowledge transfer and as such serves to point out that research plays a key role in the social, cultural and economic development of our society. Be it in the form of knowledge transfer, technology transfer or knowledge partnerships, research findings contribute directly to meeting the challenges facing our world.

Whether you are a researcher, a student, a member of the public, a businessperson or a representative of a public or community organisation, I invite you to visit our Web site. You will discover a vast and fascinating universe filled with interesting people, ideas, discoveries and possibilities, not to mention a rich repertoire of resources which could well be of use to you.
