About the Faculty

The Faculty of Fine Arts has a vibrant creative and intellectual culture that fosters cutting-edge practice, research and scholarship.

Our 3,708 students are greeted with an environment that reflects the openness and diversity of contemporary culture. Faculty members are committed to integrating new technologies with traditional media and historical fine arts practices.

The Faculty has nine departments and three research institutes in the heart of Montreal, surrounded by museums, galleries, cinemas, theatres and concert halls.

Among the excellent facilities available to students and faculty members is the Engineering, Computer Science and Visual Arts Complex, opened in 2005 and home of the Faculty's landmark research institute for new media and technologies, Hexagram.

With the moves of the theatre, contemporary dance and music departments to the downtown campus in 2009 to 2010, and the eventual relocation to the nearby Grey Nuns site, the Faculty is achieving its goal of consolidating all its departments in Quartier Concordia.

Each year, our graduates join a large, active and thriving group of over 14,000 alumni who work, teach and create around the world. Visit our News and Events page for news about faculty, alumni and students and their contribution to our cultural landscape.
