Program details
Overview
Sciences humaines is a pre-university Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC, program code 300.A1) at Cégep André-Laurendeau, offered through four distinct profiles that share a common social-science core while emphasizing different areas of study. The Individu et relations humaines profile centers on individuals, social groups, and their interactions, drawing on anthropology, psychology, sociology, geography, history, and economics. The Société et monde (Monde en action) profile focuses on global social, historical, economic, cultural, and political phenomena and includes an introductory law course. The mathematics profile builds the same humanities foundation with enriched training in mathematics. The Administration et économie profile emphasizes organizational behaviour, decision-making, and management principles alongside economics and political science. Course content and university-program access vary somewhat by profile, but graduates of any profile can pursue further studies in fields such as psychology, sociology, anthropology, geography, history, political science, economics, law, administration, or education, and each profile offers an optional international internship in the final year. The program suits students who want broad exposure to the social sciences before committing to a specific university discipline, letting them choose a profile oriented toward the individual/psychological, global/political, quantitative, or business side of the humanities.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Prerequisites (préalables), exactly as published on the program's own page: DES + Mathématiques Culture, société et technique (CST) 4e, or DES + Mathématiques 416. No minimum grade, interview, portfolio, or language test beyond the general Quebec-college process is stated on the program page. Admission follows the college's general process: apply online through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM) at admission.sram.qc.ca, which handles admission for every Montreal-area Cégep, with the college making the final decision. First-round deadlines are 1 March for Fall (applications open mid-January) and 1 November for Winter (applications open mid-September); where more qualified applicants apply than there are seats, the Cote R (R-score), based on cumulative average, ministerial-exam results and program prerequisites, ranks candidates.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRAM: Fall 2027 entry opens mid-January 2027 with a first-round deadline of 1 March 2027; Winter 2027 entry opens mid-September 2026 (SRAM: 15 September 2026) with a deadline of 1 November 2026. International applicants also use SRAM: the Fall 2027 deadline is 14 March 2027; the Winter 2027 international window already closed 31 May 2026, so the live one is Winter 2028 entry, closing 31 May 2027. Only a handful of technical programmes (Soins infirmiers, Techniques d'éducation à l'enfance, Techniques de travail social, Gestion des opérations et de la chaîne logistique, and one more) admit international students. Admission is not rolling beyond SRAM's rounds. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
