Program details

Overview

This program leads to a Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering, a 120-credit, full-time degree delivered at the University of Sherbrooke's main campus with a cooperative structure that includes five paid four-month work terms alternating with academic sessions. The curriculum moves from foundational sciences (physics, chemistry, mathematics) into engineering sciences covering structures, materials, geotechnics, hydraulics, and transportation, then into professional practice, including design projects, project management, and environmental considerations. Students work on design and team-based real projects starting in their first semester, and the program facilitates an international study term at the seventh session for those interested. It offers an accelerated bachelor-master pathway for students planning to continue to graduate studies, and it culminates in an integrative end-of-studies project. Admission requires a Quebec DEC in a science or technology field, or an equivalent international qualification, along with French-language proficiency at the C1 level. The program suits students seeking a broad civil-engineering foundation combined with paid work experience and, optionally, an international academic component.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Applicants qualify through a DEC in Sciences of Nature (200.B1), Sciences, Letters and Arts (700.A1), the International Baccalaureate (200.Z1), or Sciences Informatiques et Mathematiques (200.C1); alternatively, any DEC combined with the program's required cellular biology, general chemistry, and mathematics courses also qualifies, as does a DEC in civil engineering technology (221.02, 221.B0) or architecture technology (221.A0, 221.01). Applicants who completed their schooling outside the Quebec collegial system are admitted conditionally on passing the university's Certificat preparatoire aux programmes de 1er cycle. All candidates must show a very good knowledge of French, either through an exemption or by reaching CEFR level C1 (score of at least 500 out of 699) across the four fundamental competencies. The page does not publish a minimum cote de rendement au collegial; capacity-based selection criteria are set separately.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: Domestic (Quebec and other Canadian) applicants apply directly to Universite de Sherbrooke: for full-time undergraduate programmes the Winter 2027 deadline is 1 November 2026 and the Fall 2027 deadline is 1 March 2027, with later dates for part-time study. International applicants must apply earlier for visa processing, with a Fall 2027 deadline of 15 January 2027; the equivalent Winter international deadline (1 June) falls the preceding year, so Winter 2027 international applications closed 1 June 2026. The School of Management and Faculty of Education publish their own program-specific dates that are actually later (more time to apply) than the general undergraduate dates, while the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences uses earlier dates for most of its M.D. admission categories. None of these are described as rolling; they are published as firm final deadlines. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
