Dual-Degree Programs

With our dual-degree graduate programs, you get the best of both words. You’ll split your time as a student between INRS (Institut national de la recherche scientifique) in Québec and one of our partner universities abroad, depending on your program.

Our dual-degree programs are a unique opportunity to study abroad. You’ll benefit from high-quality instruction and outstanding research facilities at each institution you study at. By spending time on two continents you’ll expand your international network and broaden your career prospects.

Upon graduation, you’ll earn a diploma from each institution—that’s two degrees for one single program!
