Reviews
The absolute worse university, most teachers will go out of their way to ensure that you fail, have a really hard time or be absolutely disrespectful. And the same energy is given from the Module AND the Department. They just want to protect their own and defend their poorly managed institution. It’s absolutely horrible. I would qualify UQO as the wild west. It’s also stuck 10 years behind on everything. Having done a degree at Uottawa and started this degree at UQO for the SOLE reason that it’s cheaper, i recommend paying more to go somewhere else. AVOID AT ALL COST. Especially if you are/want to study psychology
The Université du Québec en Outaouais UQO is a constituent university of the Université du Québec system located in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada. As of September 2010, combined enrolment at UQO's Gatineau and Saint-Jérôme campuses was 6,017, of which 4,738 were undergraduates and 1,279 postgraduate students. UQO offers more than 100 programs of study, including 30 master's and 5 doctoral programs.nnIt was named after Quebec's Outaouais region. Outaouais borders Ottawa and is part of the National Capital Region, where a large proportion of the population is bilingual.nnThe University was established in 1981 under the government of René Lévesque Parti Québécois, although university courses had been available in the region since 1971 delivered by the Services universitaires dans l'Outaouais, or SUO.nnFormerly known as the Université du Québec à Hull UQAH, UQO changed its name in 2002 when the cities of Hull, Gatineau, Aylmer, Masson-Angers and Buckingham were amalgamated to form the new City of Gatineau. The University's new name reflects the administrative region of Outaouais, in which it is based.nnAbout 5,500 students enrol in UQO courses each year. While this is the lowest enrolment in the Université du Québec system, the number of students is steadily rising, creating demand for more courses, programs and resources. The academic staff comprises some 175 full-time professors and 565 lecturers.nnIn the past 25 years, UQO has granted close to 30,000 degrees. The University is also one of the main contributors to the qualified workforce in the region, along with Carleton University, University of Ottawa, La Cité collégiale, Algonquin College and the Cégep de l'Outaouais.nnUQO's Saint-Jérôme campus was inaugurated on January 22, 2010, at a ceremony attended by Michelle Courchesne, Québec Minister of Education, Recreation and Sports, Jean Vaillancourt, Rector of UQO, Marc Gascon, Mayor of Saint-Jérôme, Jacques Tanguay, President of Groupe AMT, and Sylvie Fréchette, Honorary Chair of the Fondation UQO fund-raising campaign. UQO Campus de Saint-Jérôme is housed in a 1,013 m2 10,900 sq ft building at the corner of rue Saint-Joseph and rue Labelle, opposite the town hall. Enrolment at the new satellite campus is close to 1,000. The six-storey main building includes classrooms, teaching and research laboratories, a library, an educational resource centre, office and administrative space, student lounges and ancillary services such as a cafeteria and bookstore. On completion of the 400-day construction project, supervised by Groupe AMT, the building was delivered to the University du Québec en Outaouais at a pre-tax cost of $21,750,000. UQO's project was modelled on the partnership used by the Université du Québec à Rimouski UQAR for its Lévis campus, which was also built by Groupe commercial AMT under the direction of Jacques Tanguay. The building's architecture combines angles and curves to maximize the admission of natural light. On each floor is a windowed student work area. Staff members have access to a third-floor terrace that offers a view of Mount Royal on a clear day. The roof of this high-tech building features a solar wall that warms outside air before it is circulated indoors. The building, which will use 35% less energy than current Building Code standards, is awaiting LEED Silver certification. Groupe AMT will retain ownership for a period of 25 years, during which time it will be responsible for building management, maintenance and surveillance. The building will be transferred to UQO at the end of the 25-year lease. The Québec Ministry of Education, Recreation and Sports will provide an annual subsidy of $2.2 million over 25 years to cover the lease costs. This subsidy includes funding for construction costs and equipment acquisition for teaching spaces. The town of Saint-Jérôme also made a generous contribution by donating the land on which the building stands, valued at $1.5 million.
Great place to study late into the night. Drinking water, snack dispensary, clean washrooms all available. Sometime it closes at 11pm.
I go to uOttawa, but I live on the Gatineau side and actually live closer to this university since rent is cheaper on this side of the river. I looked at the course offering from UQO hoping to take a few class as a visiting students and get uOttawa to recognize the credits. uOttawa have no issues with this and I’ve obtained a letter of permission very easily. Dealing with the UQO administration was the worst customer experience I’ve ever had in my life. They were giving me nasty remarks for studying in Ontario despite the fact that I’m from Quebec and were making everything in their power to make the experience a living hell. I’ve decided to not even bother dealing with this, it was just too much...
Excellent Programs with very competant teachers ! We take pride of UQO in the National Capital Region!
