History
In 1967, several institutions were merged and became public ones, when the Quebec system of public colleges was created. Collège de Maisonneuve was named after Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve.
On the 5 of May 1973 the Société Générale des Étudiants et Étudiantes du Collège de Maisonneuve (SoGÉÉCoM) is created. It is still the association of Maisonneuve students.
Programs
The college offers two types of programs: pre-university and technical. The pre-university programs, which take two years to complete, cover the subject matters which roughly correspond to the additional year of high school given elsewhere in Canada in preparation for a chosen field in university. The technical programs, which take three-years to complete, applies to students who wish to pursue a skill trade. In addition Continuing education and services to business are provided.
