This bachelor's degree in geology covers the history, formation, evolution, and management of terrestrial materials, combining foundational geology with applied environmental and geotechnical studies. The 90-credit program addresses traditional mining exploration and exploitation alongside environmental applications and geotechnical interventions, preparing graduates for work across the resource and environmental sectors. Coursework includes mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, hydrogeology, and field mapping, building the technical foundation needed for both exploration and environmental-management careers. The program is delivered on campus at UQAC's Saguenay location in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, offered in both full-time and part-time study regimes, with admission possible in the fall and winter terms. It is open to international applicants studying full-time, and graduates are prepared for roles in mineral exploration, environmental consulting, and geotechnical practice.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Applicants must satisfy one of four admission bases. Holders of a Quebec DEC in Natural Sciences (200.B1), Science, Computer Science and Mathematics (200.C1), or Science, Letters and Arts (700.A1) are eligible, as are holders of an equivalent DEC who have met the required collegial objectives and standards. Applicants with a non-Quebec general or technological baccalaureate in mathematics, chemistry, physics, or Earth sciences may be admitted if they hold knowledge equivalent to the required collegial objectives and standards; preparatory coursework may be required. Applicants with at least 15 university-level credits and a cumulative average of at least 2.3/4.3 may also be admitted. Applicants without these credentials may be admitted on the basis of sufficient preparation, demonstrated through at least three months of full-time relevant experience in a public or private Earth-sciences organization, attested in writing by the employer.
