Program details
Overview
Techniques de génie mécanique (241.A0) is a technical Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) at Cégep de Trois-Rivières that trains students as mechanical engineering technicians. According to the program page, graduates are responsible for designing, modelling, manufacturing, and optimizing mechanical parts and systems across sectors such as transportation, energy, natural resources, and manufacturing production, working with specialized tools and software in a highly technological field. Coursework covers mechanical design concepts and various manufacturing processes, including both numerically controlled and conventional machining, along with technical drawing, automation, hydraulics, and materials. The page states that the program combines design work with manual and hands-on skills and includes paid internships delivered through a work-study (alternance travail-études) structure. At the end of the second year, students choose a specialization track in either Conception (design) or Fabrication (manufacturing) for the remainder of their studies. On completion, graduates can enter the workforce or pursue university studies toward becoming an engineer. It suits students interested in mechanical design and manufacturing who want hands-on technical training with a later choice between a design-focused or manufacturing-focused specialization.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission to Techniques de génie mécanique (241.A0) requires Cégep de Trois-Rivières' general college admission conditions plus secondary 5 Mathematics CST (a TS or SN mathematics course from secondary 4 also satisfies this prerequisite) and secondary 5 Physics, or Mathématiques 436 and Physique 534 for applicants from the former curriculum. The language requirement is met through the DES's own secondary 5 language-of-instruction and second-language courses; no separate IELTS, TOEFL, or French-test score is published for this programme. No minimum grade average, interview, portfolio, or work-experience condition is stated on the programme page; applications go through the SRAM network (admission.sram.qc.ca).
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM): for Fall 2027 entry the equal-consideration date (1st round) is 1 March 2027, followed by a second round in early-to-mid April and a third around mid-to-late May, with the college noting exact round-2/3 dates vary slightly each year; Winter 2027 entry opened 15 September 2026 with a 1 November 2026 first-round deadline and a late-November second round. International applicants apply directly through SRAM as well and face a firm 14 March 2027 closing date for Fall 2027 day programmes, with the college advising early submission because of immigration-processing timelines; no separate winter international deadline is published. Admission proceeds round by round on a rolling basis until each round's seats are filled. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
