Reviews of UQO (College)

JP Dubé

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...

(Translated) I regret my choice of university regarding the social work program. No support in difficult situations during internships. The university simply protects itself and does not respect the values taught. (Original) Je regrette mon choix d'université en ce qui concerne le programme en travail social. Aucun soutien en cas de situations difficiles lors des stages. L'université se protège tout simplement et ne respectent pas les valeurs enseignées.

(Translated) Affordable school place not too big so less chance of getting lost. Each class should have power outlets so that we can plug in our laptops, that stuff dies pretty quickly .... The library should be double the size with 3 times as many printers and more books free, it was hard to find my old book from the 1900s. Some teachers literally put me to sleep even if I'm not tired. I barely passed a few courses so UQO fired and banned me for 2 years. I only need a court to have my diploma so you can imagine my frustration! A teacher that I consider crazy flagged me for plagiarism when I had to summarize an author's text (without external sources) because I forgot to put the author's name every 10 seconds knowing full well that I was only citing him. I am disappointed with my experience but I like that UQO is there to offer us a chance to get out of poverty, the very reason for its existence (Original) École abordable lieu pas trop gros alors moins de chances de se perdre. Chaque classe devrait avoir des prises de courant pour qu'on puisse brancher nos laptop ça meure assez vite ces affaires-la.... La biblio devrait etre le double de grandeur avec 3 fois plus d'imprimantes et plus de livres offerts, c'etais dur de chercher mon vieux livre des années 1900. Certains profs me me dormir litéralement meme si je ne suis pas fatigué. Je passais de justesse dans quelques cours alors l'UQO m'as renvoyé et bani pour 2 ans. Il me manque qu'un cour pour avoir mon diplome alors vous imaginez ma frustration ! Une prof que je juge folle m'as flagée pour plagiat lorsqu'il fallait faire un résumé d'un texte d'un auteur (sans sources extérieures) parce que j'ai omis de placer le nom de l'auteur a chaque 10 secondes sachant tres bien que je ne citais que lui. Je suis décue de mon expérience mais j'aime que l'UQO soit la pour nous offrir une chance de se sortir de la pauvreté, la raison meme de son existence

(Translated) The teaching is correct but what is this school lagging technologically! I was shocked to see the difference between the UQO library and the Gabrielle Roy Cégep. Every day you have to reconnect to Wi-Fi, then again every two hours. The library's printing system is not as practical as that of G-Roy and the interface of the school's sites clearly date back to the 2000s. (Original) L'enseignement est correct mais qu'est-ce que cette école est à la traîne technologiquement ! J'ai été choqué de voir la différence entre la bibliothèque de L'UQO et du Cégep Gabrielle Roy. Tous les jours il faut se reconnecter au Wi-Fi, puis de nouveau à tous les deux heures. Le système d'imprimerie de la bibliothèque est pas aussi pratique que celui de G-Roy et l'interface des sites de l'école datent clairement des années 2000.

(Translated) The university and the residences are very well located. Clean and modern places. Good service from the management. Parking overloaded on a regular basis. Streets of residences rather dangerous while many motorists use it to avoid a few minutes on Taché during rush hours, with no respect for the signs. Little lighting in places. (Original) L'université et les résidences sont très bien situées. Lieux propres et modernes. Bon service de la part de la direction. Stationnement surchargé sur une base régulière. Ruelles des résidences plutôt dangereuse alors que de nombreux automobilistes l'utilise pour éviter quelques minutes sur Taché lors des heures de pointe, sans aucun respect pour la signalisation. Peu d'éclairage par endroit.

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. It 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. The 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). Formerly 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. About 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. In 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. UQO'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.

(Translated) Student life in full swing with the new student bar. It is a university that becomes truly formative on a human level when you get involved and / or participate. Relatively good quality of education. Friendly and attentive staff. Professors / lecturer available and friendly. Intercultural University! :) Like many other universities, it suffers from underfunding and cuts, which unfortunately sometimes leads to labor disputes with teachers and salaried students. (Original) Vie étudiante en plein essor avec le nouveau bar étudiant. C'est une université qui devient vraiment formatrice au niveau humain lorsqu'on s'implique et/ou on participe. Qualité de l'enseignement relativement bonne. Personnel chaleureux et à l'écoute. Professeurs/chargé de cours disponible et sympathique. Université interculturel ! :) Comme plusieurs autres universités, elle souffre du sous-financement et des coupures ce qui amène malheureusement parfois des conflits de travail avec les profs chargés de cours et étudiants salariés.

I've attempted this University twice, hoping that my experience would be better. Although I've studied the majority of my life in Ontario, because I was born in Quebec, I really wanted to try going to a French University once I moved to Gatineau. The whole experience in terms of the way they correct your exams (especially the French Test for those who didn't attend College in Quebec) wasn't a great experience for me. It's funny how life works, as I'm now doing so well in one of the best Universities of Ontario. This is proof that if you know your worth, do not second guess yourself and make the appropriate changes. I've always been perseverant in my studies, but unfortunately, UQO just wasn't the right fit for me. The issue wasn't my capabilities or my intelligence, but rather choosing the best University with the right resources for me.

(Translated) Hello, I wrote a short poem to describe the atmosphere at UQO Come dear students, we have interesting programs There is so much to do here, it is a thrilling living environment, In any other place, there is no more flourishing experience Far be it from me to play any trick on you ... Don't worry, the wealth of education Will bring great benefits in your lives Since it takes a degree to thrive, Since our reason for being is to give papers. Recognition for completed studies, Or a simple sign of the end of a route, Once you are successful, You will be able to access life As long as you follow the rules ... To graduate, you must know how to read the small print With glasses to see the footers well On its turned up ends, we find All the laws to be respected to be accepted University, place of restriction, and misunderstanding Whether you understand it or not, it doesn't matter to us, We only want your membership fee, to catch other idiots ... (Original) Bonjour, Jai rédigé un court poème pour vous décrire l'ambiance à l'UQO Venez chers étudiants, nous avons des programmes intéressant Il y a tant à faire ici, c'est un milieu de vie palpitant, En d'autre endroit, on ne trouve d'expérience plus florissante Loin de moi l'idée de vous jouer un quelconque mauvais tour... N'en faites pas, la richesse de l'éducation Apportera de grands bienfaits dans vos vies Puisqu'il faut avoir un degré pour prospérer, Puisque notre raison d'être est de donner des papiers. Reconnaissances pour les études accomplies, Ou bien simple signe de la fin d'un parcours, Une fois que vous aurez réussi, Vous pourrez accéder à la vie En autant que vous respectez les règles... Pour graduer, faut savoir lire les petits caractères Avec des lunettes pour bien voir les bas de pages Sur ses extrémités retroussées, on retrouve L'ensemble des lois à respecter pour être accepté Université, lieu de restriction, et d'incompréhension Que vous compreniez ou non, n'importe pour nous, On veut seulement votre cotisation, pour attraper d'autres idiots...
