Program details
Overview
The Certificate in Information Technology at Université du Québec en Outaouais is a 30-credit, first-cycle program offered on a part-time basis. It gives students qualifying, practice-oriented training in the technical fundamentals commonly required to develop and use information technologies, including programming languages, web technologies, databases, computer networking, and security. The program is built for students who want applied technical competence rather than a full computer science degree, and it can serve as a stepping stone toward further study in the field. Coursework combines conceptual grounding with hands-on application across the core areas of modern IT practice. Admission is offered across the fall, winter, and summer trimesters. Students admitted without adequate prior preparation in mathematics may be required to complete an additional foundational mathematics course before or alongside their certificate coursework.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Three admission pathways. Collegial pathway: hold a Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) or equivalent; additional mathematics coursework (course MAT1023) may be required if prior preparation in mathematics is insufficient. University pathway: have successfully completed at least 15 university credits with a cumulative average of at least 2.0 on 4.3, or equivalent. Experience pathway: have at least twenty-four months of work experience in a field that provides technical knowledge relevant to computing, as attested and judged relevant by the program. The program is offered on a part-time basis only.
