Université de Montréal is strongly committed to fostering diversity and
inclusion. Through its Equal Access Employment Program (EAEP), UdeM invites
applications from women, Aboriginal people, visible and ethnic minorities, as
well as persons with disabilities. We will –confidentially – adapt our
recruitment mechanisms to the specific needs of people with disabilities who
request it. 

UdeM embraces a broad and inclusive definition of diversity that goes beyond
applicable laws, and therefore encourages all qualified individuals to apply,
regardless of their characteristics. However, in accordance with Canadian
immigration requirements, priority will be given to Canadians and permanent
residents.

In order to measure the impact of its equity, diversity and inclusion actions,
UdeM is collecting data on applicants identifying themselves with one of the
groups targeted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, namely women,
Aboriginal people, visible minorities, ethnic minorities and people with
limitations. To this end, we thank you for completing a self-identification
questionnaire. The information you provide through this form is strictly
confidential and will be shared only with those responsible for the UdeM EAEP.
If you wish, you may also indicate that you belong to one of the targeted
groups in your cover letter, which will be reviewed by the selection committee
and the assembly of peers.
