Program details
Overview
Technologie de l'architecture is a three-year technical DEC that trains students to design small buildings and produce two- and three-dimensional architectural drawings, with an understanding of construction assemblies, building codes, and materials. Coursework covers drafting, computer-aided design modelling, construction systems in wood, steel, and concrete, building codes, project cost estimation, sustainable building practices, and the history of architecture, using software such as AutoCAD and Revit. Classroom instruction runs across six semesters at twenty-eight to thirty-two hours per week, supplemented by laboratory work, alongside general education courses in mathematics, physics, French, and philosophy. The program includes a paid summer work-study option, opportunities for international exchange, a seventy-hour internship in the final session, and an exhibition of graduating students' work for prospective employers. Admission requires Secondary 4 Mathematics (Technico-sciences or Sciences naturelles) and Secondary 4 Science and Technology or its applied equivalent. It suits students interested in building design and construction who want practical, drawing-based training. Graduates can work directly in architecture firms, construction companies, or government agencies, or continue to university programs in architecture, civil engineering, interior design, or urban planning, including a pathway that recognizes four courses toward a program at Université de Montréal.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission follows Cegep de Levis's general college requirements: a Quebec Diploma of Secondary Studies (DES) or Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP), equivalent training recognized by the college, or sufficient training and experience after at least 24 cumulative months away from full-time study. The Technologie de l'architecture programme requires Mathematiques Technico-sciences 4e or Sciences naturelles 4e, plus Science et technologie 4e or Applications technologiques et scientifiques 4e, completed at the secondary level. Applicants admitted on a DEP must also have completed Secondary V language of instruction, Secondary V second language, and Secondary IV mathematics. Instruction is in French; the programme page does not publish a separate English or French proficiency test score. No portfolio, interview, or other condition is stated.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through the Service regional d'admission au collegial de Quebec (SRACQ) in rounds: for Fall 2027 entry the first-round deadline is 1 March 2027 (recommended for contingented programmes), with further rounds on 1 May, 1 June and 1 August, and late registration still possible by appointment afterward; Winter 2027 entry has round deadlines of 1 November 2026, 1 December 2026, 2 January 2027 and 12 January 2027. International applicants apply through the same SRACQ process but the college publishes no fixed international closing date, only post-admission steps such as a 5,000 CAD tuition deposit and a CAQ/study permit process that can take 12 or more weeks. Admission runs through successive rounds rather than a single hard cutoff, so later applicants are still considered while seats remain. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
