He began a university career in 1964 as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology of the Faculty of Social Sciences at Laval University.

A year later, he was named dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences. Professor Montminy has served on numerous committees, both at Laval University and at major national organizations. He trained a large number of students from all three cycles, while pursuing important research in Quebec religious sociology. He has published numerous articles and participated as an expert in several conferences and seminars. He was a member of major national and international sociology associations. An esteemed humanist and educator, Professor Montminy has marked the intellectual life of his institution and that of society with a remarkable personal and professional commitment. Through his many professional occupations, Jean-Paul Montminy found the time to take on various services within his religious community (head of continuing formation, sub-prior, member of the council of Saint-Dominique Convent of Quebec) in addition to regular preaching at St. Dominic Church. He has always kept a concern for the youngest generations and an affection for his family, especially his nephews and nieces, whom he met with joy at least once a year. His last years were lived at the Cardinal-Vachon residence surrounded by a competent and dedicated staff. May they be thanked!
