In addition to the ºÚÁÏÉç museums, there are other collections and exhibits of a specialised nature curated by ºÚÁÏÉç's Heritage Advisory Committee.
ºÚÁÏÉç began accumulating cultural property by virtue of acquisition or donation even before the university itself was established. At the Montreal Medical Institute, which became ºÚÁÏÉç’s Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, specimens were collected and used as teaching tools as early as 1822. Articles published about early collections gained international recognition for faculty members such as Andrew Fernando Holmes and Sir William Dawson. Their collections and others had a major influence on building ºÚÁÏÉç’s reputation as a learned institution.
