Located in the beautiful Eastern Townships of the province of Quebec, Canada, Bishop’s University is truly unique, offering its students an undergraduate university experience like no other. Ever since its founding in 1843, our approach to education can be summed up in one word: engagement. Bishop’s connects students to an array of outstanding learning opportunities, including internships and exceptional training experiences. These opportunities enable students to strengthen their skills and obtain valuable, hands-on professional experience while completing their academic studies. Our students enjoy being able to specialize in their fields while still having the flexibility to choose courses from other disciplines. We encourage you to explore multiple interests!
With approximately 3,000 students, Bishop’s offers a learning environment where classes are intimate and students receive personalized attention from their professors. We’re an English university in a French community, so while students don’t need to know a word of French upon arrival, our environment offers the ability to learn, improve, or become fully bilingual in both languages.
Bishop’s creates a unique social environment for its students, one that fosters personal growth. This supportive atmosphere nurtures students and helps transform them into confident and skilled leaders who are ready to make a difference in this world. Outside of class, students get involved in campus life, creating a wonderful sense of community. A plethora of activities and facilities exist both on campus and in the general area: a newly renovated full recreation and athletics facility, over 120 kilometers of hiking and biking trails, two theaters, an art gallery, music recital and practice facilities, a convenience store, a bookstore, cafés, two libraries, seven residences, a medical clinic, and much more. And to top it all off, our beautiful storybook-like campus is located in one of the most inspiring regions of the country, with many outdoor activities available in the area, including eight ski hills within two hours. Bishop’s is a fantastic place to live and study!
