ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY:
Université Laval is one of Canada's leading universities. Among the top ten Canadian universities in terms of research, Laval traces its origins back to 1663, when Monseigneur François de Laval, the first bishop of New France, founded the Quebec Seminary with the authorization of the King of France, Louis XIV. A Royal Charter creating Université Laval was granted to the Quebec Seminary by Queen Victoria in 1852. A few years later, in 1878, Laval opened a second campus in Montreal to offer higher education teaching in this city. Laval’s “ Montreal branch ” became the University of Montreal in 1920. As Canada’s oldest university, Laval was the very first institution in North America to offer higher education in French.
