Our Languages Program is UNIQUE in Quebec offering as many as six languages:
Spanish, Italian, German, Greek, Hebrew and Chinese.

The overall aim of the Languages profile is to prepare students for university studies in translation, languages, linguistics, education, interpretation, communications, journalism, foreign relations, hotel management, public relations, tourism and international professions.

The profile provides students with the opportunity to learn two or three languages, depending on their entry level. In the first term, students study two languages and are expected to continue studying at least one of these languages to the fourth level. There are fourteen Specific Education courses in this Profile, at least eight of which are language courses.

Students may choose from Spanish, Italian, German, Greek, Hebrew and Chinese (Mandarin).

This is a two year pre-university program which prepares you for university studies in Languages, Translation, Literature, Interpretation, Tourism, Journalism, Media (Communication Studies), Education and other related fields such as: Public Relations, Hotel Management, International Relations and many more.

You will have the opportunity to specialize in two or three languages of the six that are offered. You may choose from either option #1 or #2:

#1: Two languages to level IV (Spanish, Italian or German)
or:
#2: One language to level IV (Spanish, Italian or German) and two consecutive courses in any of the other languages.

Please refer to the "Course List" page for more details.

Our qualified faculty and our multimedia language lab will provide you with excellent training and modern facilities in which to practice.

The teachers of the Modern Languages Department wish to invite all language students to make ample use of the Language Study Centre (LSC), a meeting place for students, teachers and tutors. Come practice your languages; seek help with homework and assignments and consult the available resource materials. A schedule for opening hours and teachers’ availability is posted outside 5E.10.
