Canadian Studies
Interested in exploring the history, culture, literature, politics and economy of this country? Then Ottawa is your destination of choice. The Institute of Canadian Studies was founded to explore the complexity of Canada and promote a deeper understanding of our country. In this program, you will have a chance to take courses in both English and French, which helps you become not only functionally bilingual, but also will put you more in touch with Canada’s two founding linguistic cultures.
indigenous Studies
The Faculty of Arts offers a major and a minor in Indigenous studies. Canadian society is awakening more and more to the enduring presence of Indigenous societies and cultures in its midst. These programs are designed to serve both Indigenous and non-Indigenous students and scholars. The major provides a firm general-knowledge base while also focusing on Indigenous history, philosophy, religions, cultures and arts, and on the languages of Canadian and North American Indigenous peoples. Graduates of the programs can play important roles both inside and outside of Canada's Indigenous communities.
