Program details

Overview

Histoire et civilisation (700.B0) is a two-year preuniversity DEC at Cégep de Sherbrooke, admitting students in the fall, centred on the history of Western civilization. Students trace the roots and evolution of several fields of knowledge that the program page names as art, architecture, literature, music, philosophy, politics, science, and sociology, following their development from antiquity to the present day. Admission requires having passed prior secondary-level courses in mathematics, including a course such as CST or Mathematics 416, along with TS or SN at the appropriate level for a mathematics-based pathway. Graduates gain access to a broad set of university programs, with the possibility of taking additional mathematics, biology, or psychology courses where a target university program requires them as prerequisites; the program page lists art (other than music and visual arts), and communications among the accessible fields. It suits students who are passionate about how humanity has evolved through history, enjoy reading, writing, and research, are able to analyze, critique, and synthesize information, and are set on continuing to university-level studies, typically in the humanities or social sciences.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Beyond the Cégep's general admission conditions (a DES carrying the required units in language of instruction, second language and mathematics — with levelling activities due by the end of the first or second session for students short on those units, or an equivalent formation including studies completed outside Quebec), this pre-university programme's own page requires one mathematics prerequisite: CST 4e or Mathématique 416, or TS 5e/SN 5e (mathematics pathway). Its electives are designed to also satisfy university admission requirements for programmes such as psychology and administration. No language test score, minimum GPA, portfolio submission or interview is published for this programme.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM), which also covers cégeps outside the Montreal region: Winter 2027 entry opens 15 September 2026, with a round-one deadline of 1 November 2026 and a round-two deadline of 25 November 2026; Fall 2027 entry follows SRAM's recurring round-one deadline of 1 March 2027, though the cégep's site has not yet posted a dated row for that cycle (its Fall 2026 table is marked as closed). International applicants follow a separate SRAM timeline, confirmed directly on the cégep's site: Fall 2027 applications run from 15 March 2026 to 14 March 2027, and Winter 2028 applications run from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. Admission is not open-ended rolling, but SRAM runs successive rounds for as long as places remain. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
