Social Sciences Certificate

This undergraduate certificate develops the knowledge needed to analyze and understand social realities. The 30-credit programme comprises 15 mandatory credits across five required courses and 15 elective credits distributed across three disciplinary blocks covering economics and organization, history and politics, and culture and society, with a minimum of three credits required in each block. Students gain the analytical tools needed to interpret social situations, events and ideas from multiple disciplinary perspectives. Delivery is entirely at a distance through Université TÉLUQ, Quebec's dedicated distance-education university, allowing self-paced study without fixed classroom sessions. The certificate can stand alone or contribute credits toward a related bachelor's degree, and suits students seeking a broad, multidisciplinary grounding in the social sciences.
