A brief description of the institution’s formal participatory or shared governance bodies:
Students, academic, and non-academic staff at Université TÉLUQ participate in university decisions through various bodies and committees.
Students:
The student community can engage in decisions at Université TÉLUQ through the Association étudiante de l’Université TÉLUQ (AÉTÉLUQ) (Student Association of Université TÉLUQ).
AÉTÉLUQ comprises over 20,000 members studying at Université TÉLUQ. AÉTÉLUQ's activities encompass three main aspects: providing services to its members, representing their interests internally and externally, and fostering student life. The Association was established by TÉLUQ students to advocate for and promote their academic, economic, social, and political interests. AÉTÉLUQ upholds principles of democracy within its bodies, active participation in university bodies, transparency, access to quality public education, and solidarity with social struggles. AÉTÉLUQ representatives are present on the University TÉLUQ Board of Governors and in various bodies such as the Academic Affairs Committee, Teaching Evaluation Committee, Institutional Committee on Sexual Violence, program comittees, etc.
