The Government of Québec is providing $5.9M to the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi for the construction of a new student residence on campus. The residence will be located near the campus main pavilion and will include 72 apartments as well as common areas. UQAC recteur Ghislain Samson said that this development is an important piece of the broader affordable student housing puzzle in the province. QC Minister of Higher Education Pascale Déry added that tackling the housing crisis is essential to enabling students to focus entirely on their studies.
