These departments are aware of the importance of bilingualism in order for graduate students to succeed in their research careers. Students who are proficient in English are therefore welcome and accepted into graduate-level programs. The Department of Computer Science and Operations Research provides a number of accommodations to make you feel comfortable and help you fulfill the requirements of the program even if French is not your main language of study: All laboratories are offered in a bilingual environment. Above all, staffs in the program are available to help and support you throughout your studies.
