Student associations: a
great way to take an active part
in university life!
Université Laval has over 200
student associations. More than one hundred of them are faculty
or department associations, while the others are para-university associations
(support groups, foreign student bodies, or associations based on social,
political, or religious lines).
In addition, two general associations represent
undergraduate, master's and doctoral students :
CADEUL defends the rights and interests of the
students and takes action on teaching, cultural,
economic, political, and social issues, as well as on
matters related to university management. Its mission
and raison d'être are based on the Declaration
of Student Rights.
In 1997, ÆLIÉS marked its 30th
anniversary, which makes it the oldest graduate
student association in Québec. Since it was
founded, the Association's mission has been to defend
your rights, interests, and ideas.
