Parlez-vous français? Located in one of the world's top English-speaking destinations, the Canadian Province of Québec is just a little bit different. Not only is it a bilingual region, it has its own national holiday (La St-Jean Baptiste Day, every 24 June) and is the biggest producer of maple syrup in Canada. When it comes to higher education though, the key to unlocking the mysteries of this distinct region lies in the Conference of Rectors and Principals of Québec Universities (). CREPUQ is a private organisation comprising, on a voluntary basis, all of Québec’s 17 universities (14 French and 3 English). Together they host over 285,000 students (28,000 of which are international students) and offer an extremely diverse university system with over 1,400 Master’s and Doctoral programmes alone. ���Ϲ��� Monitor tracked down Julie Benoit from CREPUQ to learn more about the province of Québec and its university system.
