About University

Founded in 1962, the University of Lagos has, for over 5 decades, provided qualitative and research-oriented education to Nigerians and all those who have entered its domain in search of knowledge. At its inception, the University of Lagos was empowered to produce a professional workforce that would steer the political, social and economic development of a newly independent country. Over the last fifty years the University has pursued this mission with vigour, excellence and panache. The University has built a legacy of academic excellence and is now acclaimed publicly as “the University of First Choice and the Nation’s Pride.”.

History

The establishment of the University of Lagos in 1962 was informed by the need to intensify the training of a professional workforce for a newly independent Nigeria in search of rapid industrialisation and economic development. It was however quite evident that the country lacked the requisite workforce to actualise the people’s dream. There was a big gulf to be filled, and that required establishing many more universities.

Research

The University of Lagos is a Centre for academic research. The University research activity was one of the major criteria used by the National Universities Commission (NUC) in adjudging the University as the Best University in Nigeria at the Nigerian University System Annual Merit Award (NUSAMA) in 2008.

It offers more than 650 undergraduate programmes and graduate programmes, including 71 doctoral programmes. The Times Higher Education World University Rankings of 2012-2013 ranks the Université de Montréal at 84th place globally .

More than 55,000 students are enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programs, making it the second largest university in Canada in terms of student enrolment.

History

As an institution, the university was first founded when the Université Laval in Quebec City founded a new branch in Montréal in 1878, which became known as the Université de Laval à Montréal.[6] This initially went against the wishes of Montréal’s prelate, who advocated an independent university in his city.

At the time of its creation, less than a hundred students were admitted to the university’s three faculties, which at that time were located in Old Montreal. These were the faculty of theology (located at the Grand séminaire de Montréal), the faculty of law (hosted by the Society of Saint-Sulpice) and the faculty of medicine (at the Château Ramezay).

Research

Scientific development and the advancement of knowledge at the Université de Montréal are part of a long tradition of research that dates back to its early years. Basic or applied, theoretical or practical, research at Université de Montréal covers the full range of modern thought and encourages interdisciplinary research.

The Université de Montréal, which ranks second among Canada’s most active institutions of higher learning in terms of research and development, with more than $500 million in research funding, enjoys an outstanding reputation in the international scientific community.

International projects

With over 7,000 foreign students enrolled last year, UdeM is considered one of Canada’s most cosmopolitan universities. Its foreign student office (Bureau des étudiants internationaux) provides guidance and information to foreign students, while English-speaking students from other Canadian provinces receive help and advice from the coordinator of the Anglophone Student Support Program. UdeM students who wish to complete their education abroad can obtain information at the Maison internationale on our many exchange programs with universities around the world.
