The Quebec Inter-University Transfer Agreement (IUT) or Autorisation d'études hors établissement (AEHE) allows Polytechnique regular students to take courses at other Quebec universities. Certain conditions apply. A student who has obtained authorization to take a course in another institution is required to follow the institutional regulations of Polytechnique as well as those of the host institution.
Registration and withdrawal for an Inter-University course is done through the Bureau de coopération interuniversitaire (BCI) website: https://www.bci-qc.ca/aehe/
Free students and auditing students do not have access to registration for courses taken at other institutions.
If necessary, consult the following documents:
- Authorization to study outside an establishment (AEHE): Student guide (French) (.pdf)
- Registration procedure for an Inter-University course (.pdf)
- For any questions, contact: horsetablissement@polymtl.ca
If you are enrolled in a graduate program, the course must be included in your study plan.
If the off-site course is not yet included in your study plan, you must make a modification to your existing study plan before submitting your Inter-University Transfert request:
- Study Plan Modification Form (.pdf)
Exchange candidates must choose their other courses among the courses offered at Polytechnique Montréal. A regular student enrolled in a short program can, however, take a language course at another university, if not offered at Polytechnique Montréal,
Registration and withdrawal for such an Inter-University course is done through the Bureau de coopération interuniversitaire (BCI) website: https://www.bci-qc.ca/aehe/
Any course cancellation or abandon must also be done electronically on the same website; deadlines are those of the host establishment.
