About Bishop’s University |
| Bishop’s University, founded in 1843, is a predominantly residential university whose primary concern is offering undergraduate students a quality education in arts, education, sciences and business administration.
A highly dedicated teaching faculty, an accomplished and diverse student body and an extraordinary setting combine to make Bishop’s University one of Canada’s premier undergraduate universities.
Bishop’s is located at the junction of the St. Francis and Massawippi rivers in Lennoxville, amid the rolling hills of the Eastern Townships of southern Quebec. Its academic programs are broadly-based and stress the inter-relationships of disciplines rather than their specializations. The residential aspect and small size of the university encourage an informal atmosphere in academic and social situations.
Emphasis is placed on personal contact between faculty and students through small classes and frequent use of seminars, laboratories and tutorials. Self-directed study is encouraged through student research projects and special independent study programs. |
