Whether at the undergraduate or graduate level, most programs are offered on a part-time basis on evenings and weekends, or in various intensive formats to allow professionals to remain in the work force.

The campus is located on Montreal's South Shore across from the Longueuil-Université-de-Sherbrooke subway station.
  The Joint Campus in Saguenay opened its doors in 1996 to medical students.
  Also opening in 1996, the Joint Campus in Moncton, New Brunswick, offers medical training to French-speaking students.
