Charlevoix: CECC consolidates its achievements

“The issue of methodology in the humanities has been identified by universities as one that can really be explored,” adds Ms. Abumrad.

“We have approached Quebec in our different disciplines. On the other hand, we will have a course entirely dedicated to Quebec about what it was, how it has become and how it is developing,” says political science professor Karine Dufour Cauchon.

The humanities will enable the graduate to continue his undergraduate studies in areas such as education, management, law or communications.
