Overview
This certificate in Archaeology at Universite du Quebec a Chicoutimi is a 30-credit first-cycle programme that provides the fundamentals of the discipline while showing its links to related fields such as history, anthropology, geography, biology, chemistry, and physics. It can be completed as a standalone certificate or as a minor alongside another programme. The programme is delivered on campus in Chicoutimi and admits students in the fall, winter, and summer terms. It draws candidates coming directly from CEGEP, students transferring university-level credits from another discipline, and applicants without standard academic prerequisites who can demonstrate college-level preparation for university study, in the latter case supported by a portfolio submission. The interdisciplinary structure allows students to situate archaeological methods and material culture within the broader natural and social sciences.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission to the certificate in Archaeology follows three routes. Under the college route, applicants must hold a Diplome d'etudes collegiales (DEC).

Under the sufficient-preparation route, candidates must possess college-level knowledge, or the equivalent, sufficient to pursue university studies, supported by a portfolio submission. Candidates whose first language is not French must also meet the university's French-language proficiency requirement, demonstrated through a recognized test such as the TCF, DELF/DALF, or the university's own TF-UQAC test, unless exempted.
