Baccalaureat par cumul avec appellation offered by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, leading to a Bachelor of Arts. Students combine three 30-credit UdeM minors, chosen from Film Studies, Video Game Studies, Television Studies, and Art History, into a personalized 90-credit visual-culture designation, with the chosen components shown on the diploma. The program requires a core integration course, at least 15 upper-level credits, and 9 elective credits under set restrictions. Each minor examines distinct visual and sonic materials while addressing contemporary cultural, political, and social questions, building a broad understanding of visual politics and image ethics. Students apply separately to each component program and may complete them sequentially or concurrently, within a maximum ten-year interval between the first and last diploma obtained. The university describes the formation as unique of its kind in Quebec, combining depth in one minor with exposure to related fields of visual and media studies.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Each of these 90-credit BACCAP degrees is a named combination of a major with a minor or certificate drawn from the Faculté des arts et des sciences' pre-established list for that appellation; the university does not publish a single cote R or GPA threshold for the BACCAP as a whole. Its programme pages state only that admissibility conditions are specific to each component programme and institution, and direct applicants to the general admissibility checker and to the specific major and minor/certificate pages making up their chosen combination. In practice, admission runs through the university's general first-cycle admission bases — a Quebec DEC, prior university study, work-experience/mature-student status, or out-of-Quebec study. Unless the chosen major is itself contingented (as with the criminology major behind Études du phénomène criminel, covered separately), these majors are typically non-contingented, so the file's academic quality rather than a numeric cutoff is what is assessed.
