Canadian Studies

The Canadian Studies program at Carleton draws on many disciplines, such as art and architecture, literature and language studies, history, politics, sociology and religion, as well as Indigenous, Quebec, gender and womenпПХs studies. The program encourages new ways of exploring Canada and the diverse peoples, places and practices located within its boundaries. It further encourages critical exploration of global, transnational, and local identities, and colonial histories that further our understanding of Canada and its place in the Americas and the world.In your fourth year, you will have the opportunity to take a practicum course that provides you with hands-on work experience. The fourth-year capstone seminar provides an opportunity to engage in academic research and publication. Both courses, in addition to other Canadian Studies and Indigenous Studies courses offered; take advantage of our location in CanadaпПХs capital. We offer access to a wide variety of national and international resources, including the Canadian Museum of Civilization and National Archives, as well as a number of prestigious symposia/conferences and special lectures dealing with issues in Canadian Studies.
