On Wednesday October 4, UMONS welcomed a delegation from the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (UQTR). This was an opportunity for the two partners to discuss new high-level scientific cooperation projects in various common fields.

The Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (UQTR) delegation present at the UMONS on October 4 included its Rector, Professor Christian Blanchette, and its International Office Director, Sylvain Benoit.

UQTR has been a key partner of UMONS for over 10 years, in particular for international mobilities with the Warocqué Faculty of Economics and Management (FWEG) and the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences (FPSE).

Above all, the event was an opportunity to discuss the deepening of a fine collaboration renewed last July, as well as the prospects for moving towards new high-level scientific cooperation projects in various fields shared by UMONS and the Quebec partner.

Among the subjects discussed were psychological sciences and education, with a focus on mental health, entrepreneurship (and more particularly the dynamics of SMEs), as well as green energy and cleantech (clean technology).

Long live the UQTR-UMONS partnership!
