Program details
Overview
Sciences humaines, profil Identités et monde contemporain (300.A1) is a pre-university Diploma of College Studies (DEC) at Cégep de Sept-Îles that introduces students to human and social science disciplines including psychology, sociology, economics, history, and politics. The program places particular emphasis on analyzing current world issues and questions of citizenship, and includes content on Indigenous realities and cultural safety alongside foundational research methods in the humanities. The program runs two years and follows a standard full-time college structure without work placements. Students have the option of taking part of their coursework in English through collaboration with the college's anglophone program, and international cooperation travel opportunities are occasionally available. The program is designed as a pathway into a wide range of university programs, including teaching, law, psychology, social work, communications, and international relations. It suits students with an interest in social issues, current events, and human behaviour who are looking for a broad, discussion- and analysis-based pre-university education before specializing at the university level.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Cegep de Sept-Iles requires only the Diplome d'etudes secondaires (DES) on the Sciences humaines program page for the Individu et societe (Identities and Contemporary World) profile, and defers to the college's general admission conditions for anything further: applicants need the language of instruction (French) at Secondary 5, a second language (English) at Secondary 5, mathematics and science at Secondary 4, and history and citizenship education at Secondary 4, or, for a Diplome d'etudes professionnelles (DEP) holder, Secondary 5 French, Secondary 5 second language and Secondary 4 mathematics. The profile page lists no further program-specific prerequisite courses, minimum average, English-language test score, portfolio, or interview; as with the college's other DEC programs, instruction and admission are conducted in French.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRACQ (Service régional d'admission au collégial de Québec) for programmes starting in 2027: the Fall 2027 intake has a first-round deadline of 1 March 2027, with further rounds on 1 May, 1 June and 1 August 2027 filling remaining seats; the Winter 2027 intake closes its first round on 1 November 2026, then 1 December 2026 and 2 January 2027. International applicants outside France apply through SRACQ from 1 September 2026 and must complete their file by 1 February 2027 for Fall 2027 entry, after which no international candidate can be admitted; Winter entry is offered only to French citizens, who may apply until 1 May 2027 for Fall or between 15 May and 15 October 2027 for Winter 2028. Admission is not indefinitely rolling: each round carries a firm cut-off, though later rounds absorb whatever seats remain. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
