Program details

Overview

Sciences humaines et Arts visuels is a three-year, full-time Double DEC pre-university program at the main Salaberry-de-Valleyfield campus, with fall and winter intakes. It combines the Sciences humaines program in its Individu et société profile with the Arts visuels program plus general-education courses, and graduates earn both pre-university diplomas. The page describes it as emphasizing the human dimension and its capacity for artistic expression while developing versatility across both fields, with course grids designed around students combining these two specific programs. Shared and discipline-specific supports named on the page include access to the Centre d'Aide en Sciences Humaines (CASH), offering work cubicles, specialized documentation, and peer mentoring, alongside the Arts visuels program's CRISTO studio-support workshops. Activities include conferences and encounters with guest speakers, specialists, and artists; possible student-organized social, community, environmental, or artistic engagement initiatives; annual exhibitions of student artwork, including a silent-auction sale; and thematic seminars such as a mock parliamentary simulation at the National Assembly and the Sciences humaines student games. It suits students wanting to pursue serious study in both the humanities and visual arts rather than choosing one over the other.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Le Double DEC Sciences humaines et Arts visuels exige un diplôme d'études secondaires (DES) plus le préalable Mathématiques CST de 4e secondaire, selon la page du programme. Ce préalable s'ajoute à la base académique générale du Cégep de Valleyfield (DES, ou DEP avec réussite du français, de l'anglais de secondaire 5 et des mathématiques de secondaire 4, ou équivalence reconnue). Aucun score de test de langue anglaise ou française n'est publié pour ce programme francophone, et la page ne mentionne ni entrevue, ni portfolio, ni moyenne minimale. L'admission se fait aux sessions d'automne et d'hiver, via SRAM.

Application Details

Start Date: Automne et hiver
Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through SRAM: the college's most recently published Fall cycle (Fall 2026) opened 13 January 2026 with a first-round deadline of 1 March 2026, 23:59, and the same 1 March pattern is expected to recur for Fall 2027; Winter 2027 entry opens mid-September 2026 with a first-round deadline of 1 November 2026, 23:59. Valleyfield publishes no fixed international application dates: for the 2026-2027 and 2027-2028 cycles it accepts only international applicants already living in Quebec who completed part of their secondary or vocational studies there, so the general SRAM international calendar does not apply. Admission for domestic applicants is not rolling beyond SRAM's rounds. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
