General Education departments

General education in CEGEP is a core component of all programs. It's a selection of 14 courses including English, French*, Humanities, Physical Education and complementary courses* that all students take, no matter their program. These courses are designed to provide students with a well-rounded education beyond their chosen field of study. Browse the pages below to see which courses are offered by each general education department. 

*The number of French courses and complementary courses students take depends on whether they have a certificate of eligibility to study in English. To learn more about language requirements under Law 14, visit this page.
