Program details

Overview

Université de Saint-Boniface's Diplôme en technologies de l'information is a two-year, 90-credit collegial diploma delivered in person with a fall start, focused on network administration and the practical skills needed to keep an organization's computer systems running securely. Coursework covers programming, computer hardware, network and server administration, data security and governance, cloud computing, and the Linux and Windows operating systems, delivered through specialized courses, network simulations, collaborative projects, and lab exercises. The program includes a mandatory eight-week unpaid work placement, held from late April or early May to mid-June, giving students their first hands-on exposure to the information technology sector. Graduates are prepared for roles such as systems administrator, network administrator, data administrator, analyst, project coordinator, or technical support specialist, and bilingual graduates can find work across Manitoba's private businesses, financial institutions, government, healthcare, and school sectors. Credits from the diploma may be transferable toward a specialized Bachelor of Science in Computer Science or a Bachelor in Applied Computing at other universities. The program suits students who want a direct, applied route into IT careers, along with an option to continue toward further microcertifications or university study in computing.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Canadian-educated applicants need a Manitoba secondary diploma (or an accepted equivalent from another province) including passed Francais 40S, Anglais 40S, and Mathematiques appliquees 40S or Precalcul 40S; the page states no minimum grade or overall average for these courses. International applicants need the equivalent of a Manitoba secondary diploma from their home country and must satisfy USB's French-language requirement. The programme page does not set its own language-test score; instruction is entirely in French, so under the institution's general admission conditions, study-permit applicants must submit a standardized French test taken within the previous two years — DALF C1, DELF tout public B2, TCF (tout public or Canada) B2, or TEF (Etudes or Canada) B2 — regardless of whether their home country is francophone.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: Fall 2027 intake: application due 1 July 2027, supporting documents due 8 July 2027 (Technical and Professional programmes).
