1 / 2

Cégep de Trois-Rivières is a public French-language cégep operating two campuses in Trois-Rivières, Quebec: the Pavillon des Sciences on rue de Courval and the Pavillon des Humanités on boulevard Laviolette.

It offers pre-university Diplôme d'études collégiales (DEC) programs alongside a range of technical DEC programs, plus Attestation d'études collégiales (AEC) and other continuing-education courses delivered through its Formation-Mauricie division, which also serves adult learners and local businesses. A separate École de français provides French-language instruction.

Applied research and technology transfer are supported through three affiliated centres, C2T3, Innofibre and CMQ, extending the college's technical programs into industry-facing projects. The cégep maintains a dedicated bureau for international student admissions and support, and its Fondation du Cégep de Trois-Rivières raises scholarships and financial aid for students.

Athletics are a significant part of campus life, with roughly twenty teams competing across eleven disciplines, described by the institution as among the largest sports offerings in the Quebec college network.

Instruction across all programs is in French. The college suits recent secondary-school graduates seeking a pre-university pathway to further university study, students pursuing technical DEC credentials for direct entry into skilled professions, and adult or international learners returning to study through its continuing-education and French-language programming.
