Course Descriptions
Introductory Note
The core courses for each year of the Program constitute an interdisciplinary study of Canadian problems, and are offered either in a lecture/tutorial format or a seminar format (depending on the number of students registered). These courses are given by faculty members of the participating departments of the University and by eminent scholars from other parts of Canada who visit the University for brief or extended periods during the year.
