Program details

Overview

This program leads to a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, a 90-credit degree offered at the University of Sherbrooke, completed in about three years (six sessions) under the regular regime, or through a cooperative regime that integrates four work terms with academic sessions; both full-time and part-time study are available, with admission in the fall and winter terms. The curriculum focuses on applying information technology to scientific and technical processes, teaching students to understand and apply the software engineering process, manage IT projects, develop quality software, and work effectively in multidisciplinary teams. Six tracks are offered: general computer science, cybersecurity, software engineering, artificial intelligence, systems and networks, and an integrated program combining the bachelor's with a graduate diploma in video game development. The program is intended for holders of a Quebec DEC (or equivalent) in a science-based or technical IT program, requiring strong mathematical aptitude and analytical thinking. It suits students wanting a broad computing foundation with the option of a co-op work component or a focused specialization track.

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, Informatique et Mathematique (200.C1); alternatively, any DEC is accepted provided the applicant completes differential calculus (0M02 or 0PU2), integral calculus (0M03 or 0PU3), and linear algebra and vector geometry (0M04 or 0PU4), or holds a technical DEC in computer science with a software-development component and commits to finishing the prerequisite mathematics activities by the end of the second term. The page states French proficiency must be demonstrated through testing by the end of the first term and passed before the start of the second year, but does not publish a target score. Students in the cooperative pathway must maintain a cumulative average of at least 2.0 on a 4.3 scale, and those choosing the integrated video-game-development pathway need a minimum 2.7 average after 75 credits. No minimum cote de rendement au collegial is stated.

Application Details

Start Date: September and January
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.
