Story

Now embarking on our twenty-fourth consecutive season, the Concordia University Community Lecture Series on HIV/AIDS will be presenting another round of university and public lectures in our ongoing effort to educate about issues, perspectives and realities of the HIV/AIDS Pandemic. For nearly two decades, the series has proven to be a powerful tool in aiding in the sensitization of our local communities. Speakers are invited address academic, artistic, activist and health care issues. Professional qualifications, interdisciplinary academic relevance and background, personal experience and understanding of the issues and realities of the Pandemic are all considered factors that help us choose our speakers each year.

***********************

Ce cycle de conférences, qui vise le milieu universitaire et le public en général, s’attaque depuis bientôt 24 ans aux enjeux, perspectives et réalités de la pandémie du VIH/sida. Chaque cycle a beaucoup contribué à sensibiliser la communauté locale et s’adresse à toutes les personnes concernées par la question : universitaires, artistes, militants et intervenants du réseau de la santé. Les conférenciers sont choisis en fonction de leur parcours professionnel, de leur capacité à intéresser un public universitaire interdisciplinaire, de leur cheminement personnel et de leur compréhension des enjeux et réalités associés à la pandémie.

The facilities are modern, though there is a bunch of low-down teachers.There are three type of teachers over there. 1.old-schooled with 80s methods. 2.unexperienced and young teachers. 3. Acceptable teachers. The acceptable teachers are about 15%.

Let's start by stating that I've been doing my bachelor's degree at Concordia for the past 2 years in Computer Science. People often say that teachers are crazy but that's going a bit over the limit. Sure not all teachers are great but neither are all students. I've personally met some of my best teachers at Concordia (Aiman Latif Hanna is a good example). Teachers like these compensate for all the bad ones you will meet. Some people also tend to exagerate a teacher's lack of teaching skills simply because they have a hard time with the class and aren't bothered to study. The key to success is not only having a great teacher but also being a great student. That being said, the reason why I remove 2 stars is because of the shady activities happening behind the scene at Concordia. Bureaucracy there is complete and utter garbage. The information system has been very poorly designed, untested, and clearly overpaid for. Budget cuts for teaching assistants, maintenance of classrooms, and overall cleaning are making the experience miserable, or even unbearable sometimes. Luckily, the student base at Concordia is awesome. You get to meet all kinds of people from different corners of the globe, and you get to work with (mostly) dedicated students. It is expensive but I think that's a standard for every University. I recommend if for engineering and business degrees in English, especially if you don't like McGill's crowd.

Crazy teachers , you should pay for every little things, not having a strong student union, crazy law for using calculators for engineers, crowd classes even for masters students!!! Be aware that some departments are careless about their students(Exp. Department of civil and building engineer )

I just loved that the school is so modern and that it has a very interesting small/big concept. It is a huge school, but classes are very small.
