DCS Science and Visual Arts

Program Objectives

The Double DEC is an academic program that combines two pre-university college programs. Due to the nature of the training and despite a curriculum that requires three years of study (as opposed to standard pre-university programs which require two years), a Double DEC remains a pre-university program and is not intended for direct entry into the job market.

Individuals who choose to pursue a Double DEC are usually interested in more than one field of study. Some have not yet fully decided on their academic or career path and hope that this dual program will allow them to continue their reflection process by exploring various disciplines offered during their college studies.

The Double DEC in Science and Visual Arts combines the pre-university training of both programs. Visit the website of the CEGEP of your choice to find out if specific options are available.

To be eligible for this program, applicants must meet the admission requirements of both pre-university programs being combined.
