The Bachelor of Laws (baccalaureat en droit) at Universite du Quebec en Outaouais is a 99-credit undergraduate program delivered over eight trimesters across three years at the Gatineau campus, with admission each Fall. It trains students in the fundamental rules, concepts and principles of the main fields of law, building rigorous legal reasoning and argumentation and the ability to communicate legal analysis clearly in writing and orally to varied audiences. Coursework develops legal research methodology, use of legal databases and resources, and problem-solving across a range of complex legal questions, alongside an understanding of equality as a foundational principle of the rule of law and awareness of alternative dispute resolution processes. The curriculum also addresses professional ethics and social responsibility expected of legal practitioners. Students holding a DEC in Techniques juridiques may receive credit recognition toward the degree. Graduates are prepared for further professional legal training, such as Quebec Bar admission requirements, or for related legal, public-sector and business roles that call for strong analytical and research skills.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Base college (DEC): a Quebec DEC (pre-university or in Techniques juridiques or another technical DEC) or equivalent with a college performance rating (cote de rendement) of 27 or higher; applicants scoring 25-26 may be considered if places remain, subject to an interview. Base university studies: at least 15 completed university credits with a cumulative average of 3 out of 4.3 or equivalent, with a possible interview. All applicants must demonstrate sufficient mastery of French, attested by the Quebec ministerial French exam required for the DEC, the UQO French test, or an equivalent test administered by a francophone university; candidates who passed compensatory tests after an initial failure are deemed to meet this requirement.
