Program details
Overview
Technologie du génie électrique - Automatisation et contrôle (243.D0) is a technical Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) at Cégep de Trois-Rivières that trains students as electrical engineering technologists specializing in automation and control. According to the program page, graduates optimize the operation of various types of production equipment used in industry, including electrical, electronic, robotic, pneumatic, computer, and networked systems, and they commission, install, and maintain automation equipment. Coursework covers the operation of automated systems and industrial control and command equipment, along with hands-on use of tools such as measuring instruments, sensors, programmable automated systems, variable-speed drives, and motors. The page states that students are in contact with the industrial sector from the start of their training, with the possibility of paid internships in industry as early as the first year, and it highlights access to advanced robotics equipment and laboratories along with a work-study (alternance travail-études) structure. By the end of the program, graduates are expected to be able to keep automated electronic equipment running in a constantly evolving technological environment. It suits students interested in industrial automation and control systems who want hands-on, equipment-intensive technical training with early industry exposure.
