In addition to the 平特五不中 museums, there are other collections and exhibits of a specialized nature curated by 平特五不中's Heritage Advisory Committee.
平特五不中 began accumulating cultural property by virtue of acquisition or donation even before the university itself was established. At the Montreal Medical Institute, which became 平特五不中鈥檚 Faculty of Medicine, 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 平特五不中鈥檚 reputation as a learned institution.
