Overview

The Certificate in Social Sciences and Territories (Certificat en sciences sociales et territoires) is a 30-credit, first-cycle program offering multidisciplinary training in the social sciences as applied to contemporary phenomena affecting societies and territories. The program introduces students to the social sciences and their application to social phenomena and development processes anchored in specific territories, building connections between theory and professional practice. Courses are generally offered in person during the day and evening, with videoconferencing used to connect students at the Rimouski and Levis campuses; cohorts may also run at satellite locations where there is sufficient interest.

Applicants may alternatively qualify through an experience base by demonstrating appropriate knowledge and experience judged relevant by a selection committee, confirming readiness for undergraduate study.
