Program details
Overview
Computer Engineering Technology (243.G0) is a three-year career Diploma of Collegial Studies at Vanier College that combines electronics and software training to prepare students for work across computerized environments. The program develops programming ability, circuit design, and system maintenance skills together, with students working in industry-standard programming languages while also building competence in electronic circuitry. Coursework spans computer networking, robotics, mathematics, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things, and the project-based approach has students soldering, 3D printing, programming microcontrollers, building mobile robots, and managing embedded-systems projects across all three years. The program culminates in a mandatory three-week internship in the final semester. Graduates are positioned as embedded-systems technologists for roles in software development, computer design, and manufacturing sectors such as robotics and autonomous vehicles, and the program page notes that roughly half of graduates continue into university engineering programs, often finishing degrees faster thanks to credit already earned. It suits students who want a combined hardware-and-software technical foundation rather than a purely electrical or purely programming focus.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Computer Engineering Technology: Programmable Electronics (243.G0) requires Mathematics TS 564-406/426 or SN 565-406/426 (or cégep-equivalent CST 563-504), on top of Vanier's college-wide Quebec secondary-school baseline (DES/DVS, Secondary 5 language courses, Secondary 4 mathematics, science and history). No portfolio, interview or age condition is stated; applicants with university-transfer questions are directed to an academic advisor. No IELTS/TOEFL-style English score is required for admission: Vanier's admissions pages confirm English-proficiency testing is no longer an admission requirement, while a CEFR B2 French test (TCF, DELF, DALF or TEF) is required only of out-of-province or international applicants who did not complete Quebec secondary schooling.
Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Domestic and international applicants to Vanier College apply through the shared SRAM portal (admission.sram.qc.ca) serving Montréal-region cégeps. For Winter 2027, applications opened 15 September 2026, Round 1 closes 1 November 2026 and Round 2 closes 25 November 2026, with unfilled seats carried forward. SRAM has not yet posted Fall 2027 domestic dates. Internationally, SRAM's Fall 2027 window runs 15 March 2026 to 14 March 2027; its next window (Winter 2028) runs 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. Admission is rolling by round, not a single fixed date. Vanier's own international-applicants page confirms international students use the same SRAM system as domestic ones, bound by the same round deadlines. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
