Template:Infobox Cégep

The Cégep de Chicoutimi is a post-secondary institution in the province of Quebec, Canada. It is located in the Chicoutimi borough of the City of Saguenay. It is one of four CEGEPs in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region.[1]

The Cégep de Chicoutimi has approximately 3,000 students and 600 employees.[2] In addition to providing educational training, it also serves as a social and cultural complex with community services such as a physical training centre.[3]

History

The former seminary, now wing F.

Founded in July 1967,[4] while the CEGEP network was being established, the Cégep de Chicoutimi was formed through the merger of the Séminaire de Chicoutimi, the École des infirmières de l'Hôtel-Dieu Saint-Vallier, the Institut familial de Chicoutimi, the Institut de technologie de Chicoutimi and the École de Commerce de Chicoutimi.[3] It was the first CEGEP in Quebec to obtain its letters patent.[4][3]

Since 1996, the Cégep de Chicoutimi has been affiliated with the Centre d’Études de Forestville,[5] which is located in the Haut-Côte-Nord region. The Cégep de Chicoutimi invested over $100, 000 on July 1, 2016, to update furnishings and IT equipment at the Centre d’Études de Forestville.[6]

In 1997, the Cégep de Chicoutimi became affiliated with the Center for Geomatics of Quebec (French: Centre de géomatique du Québec) (CGQ), which offers Research and development, technical support and training services to businesses.[7][8] The CGQ is recognized by Quebec’s Ministry of Education and Higher Learning as a College Centre for the Transfer of Technologies (CCTT).[9][10]

The Cégep de Chicoutimi has also been affiliated with the Centre québécois de formation aéronautique (CQFA)  [the Quebec aeronautic training centre]  since 1968[11] The CQFA is located at the airport in the city of Saint-Honoré, Quebec.[12] It offers a three-year aviation program through the Cégep de Chicoutimi.[13]

On September 21, 2009, Quebec's Ministry of Economic Development, Innovation and Export Trade, together with Industry Canada, awarded the Cégep de Chicoutimi 5.7 million dollars.[8] These funds were used to build new facilities for the Centre for Geomatics of Quebec[14][8] and to renovate existing infrastructure.[8] Construction on the CGQ building was completed in 2011.[15] This building is LEED-certified and includes offices, laboratories, and conference rooms.[14][16]

From 2001 to 2004, the Cégep de Chicoutimi offered a program in human resources training in Djibouti[17]. Later, in 2010, the Cégep de Chicoutimi launched an electrical program in Senegal, with $300,000 in funding from the Government of Canada.[17] These funds were made available through the Canadian International Development Agency’s Skills for Employment Initiative.[17]

Campus

The main entrance to wing F. The Latin motto Spes messis in semine ("The hope of the harvest is in the seed") is engraved above the portico.

The Cégep de Chicoutimi's campus is comprised of several wings: with the exception of wing G (the Centre for Geomatics of Quebec), all of these wings are connected to one another.[18] Wing A contains the offices for various student services, including financial aid and counselling.[19] The psychology department and the pre-university programs are also located in wing A.[20] Wing B houses the library, IT support services, the English department, and the French writing centre.[18]

C Wing consists of classrooms and laboratories for physics, health sciences, and the IT administration programs. It also includes the BRICC office, an architectural and renovations consultation service offered to the public by the architecture program.[21] F Wing contains the literature department and other classrooms, the Chicoutimi School of Music, multipurpose rooms and auditoriums, and the art gallery Bang! Centre d’art actuel.

The Huard Wing (H Wing) includes classrooms and laboratories of several departments: chemistry, biology, physical geography, physical education, and mathematics.[20] Among many facilities, it contains the cafeteria, student centre, COOPSCO student co-op, student radio station, security and first aid office, photocopying services, and the Theatre Banque Nationale (formerly the Dufour Auditorium).[19] Various athletic facilities belonging to the Centre of Physical Activity (CAP), such as the swimming pool, gymnasium, and weight-training room, are located here.[19]

T Wing comprises the student dorm rooms of Tremblay Residence, along with the social sciences (history and civilization) department, and the philosophy and religious studies department.[20] It is also where the offices of the teachers’ union and the Quebec Student Sports Federation (Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec) are located.[22] L Wing houses the dorm rooms of the Lemieux Residence. Together, the two residence buildings offer a total of 185 beds and various housing services.[23]

Programs of study

The Cégep de Chicoutimi offers approximately 20 pre-university and technical programs. It is the only public CEGEP in Quebec to offer an aviation program recognized by the Ministry of Education, Recreation and Sports.[24] It does so via the Centre québécois de formation aéronautique (CQFA)  [the Quebec aeronautic training centre], located in Saint-Honoré, Quebec.[12]
