Inside Université de Montréal's largest research partnership: McGill University

Behind Université de Montréal's research output sits a defining relationship: 5,450 co-authored works with McGill University (Canada) in the five years to 2025, the university's single largest collaboration.

It anchors an unusually connected research base: 1,107 collaborating institutions across 79 countries, producing 44,118 joint works over the window, with international co-authors on 43% of output.

The collaborative work travels: its field-weighted citation impact stands at 2.67, where the world average is 1.0.

The Research Collaboration Index, the first global account of how universities actually collaborate, published its first full edition on 15 September 2026. The full results are public.
