Electrical Engineering

Graduation.

You just graduated from high school. Ever since you were young, you wanted to be an electrical engineer, just like your father. You now live with your parents in Saint-Jérôme. You also practice short and long track speed skating. You need to choose between two options to become an electrical engineer. You have to go to the university, but you can get to it with a pure and applied science program or an electrician engineering technician program.

Choice 1 : Pure and Applied Science.

Choice 2 : Electrical Engineering Technology.

End of high school

Pure and Applied Science.

The program of Pure and Applied Science is offered pretty much at every college, but you have to decide between the Cegep of Saint-Jérôme and the College Lionel-Groulx. The Cegep of Saint-Jérôme is the closest from your home, but most of your friends are going to the College Lionel-Groulx, which is a thirty-minute car ride to go.

Choice 1 : Cegep of Saint-Jérôme.

Choice 2 : College Lionel-Groulx.

Advanced Science

Electrical Engineering Technology.

Going with an electrical engineering technology program is a good way to get out of school with a job and a diploma. Also, there are a few places reserved at the university for those who completed this program. It is a longer, but safer way to get to the university with a good job to help you earn a wage to pay for school. There are two places that you are interested to. You have the choice to stay with your family in Saint-Jérôme or you can go to the "Cegep of Levis".
