Canadian Studies
The Departments of Economics, English, French, Geography, History, Political Science and Sociology co-operate in the offering of a special programme in Canadian Studies designed to provide the student with an interdisciplinary approach to the study of all aspects of Canada.
Students who propose to concentrate in Canadian Studies (see the outline of the programme on p. 101 of the Calendar) complete a standard first year programme (in which French 190 is required, or French 101*/102* if the equivalent of Grade 13 French has not been passed) and then follow the Honours programme of one of the above departments, or a double Honours programme with two of the above departments.
In each of Years 2, 3, and 4 the student takes the equivalent of three full courses (four if double Honours) in his major department(s), one of which (or one each if double Honours) is the department’s principal Canadian course at that level. In each year electives are chosen from among the various Canadian content courses offered by each participating department (as listed below).
The core course for each year of the programme is an interdisciplinary study of Canadian problems, offered either in a lecture/tutorial format or a seminar format (depending on the number of students registered), and staffed by interested faculty members of the participating departments and of the University and by eminent scholars from other parts of Canada who will visit the University for brief or extended periods during the year.
The student is granted, upon successful completion of the 22-course programme, an Honours B.A. in his major subject with the subtitle of Canadian Studies.
Core Courses
An interdisciplinary course offered both through lectures and discussion groups devoted to the Canadian social and physical environments.
Also an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the cultural environment in Canada.
A seminar course, staffed by at least two faculty members from different departments, in which particular themes and problems relating to Canada will be investigated. The content of the programme each year will vary according to the interest and inclination of faculty and students.
Prerequisite: Canadian Studies 201*/202*
An extensive senior research essay, supervised by a committee composed of faculty members from two or more of the participating departments, which deals with a specific aspect of Canada utilizing material and methods from several different disciplines.
