2012-2013 Undergraduate Calendar

Students take required interdisciplinary Canadian Studies (CANA) courses along with a number of Canada-centred courses offered by other departments emphasizing the unique nature of the Canadian experience, and the value and practice of combining disciplinary approaches in the study of culture and society.

CANA core courses offered in years 1, 2 and 3 are designed to introduce students to interdisciplinary studies in a progressive manner. The year 1 course is taught by one instructor and examines the development of Canadian culture from the perspectives of disciplines within the Humanities. Year 2 and 3 courses are interdisciplinary courses which combine Humanities and Social Science perspectives on a particular topic or issue related to the study and understanding of Canada.

The Centre for Canadian Studies offers combined major programs leading to a BA (Honours or Pass) and a Minor for students in other disciplines. Canadian Studies core courses may also be taken as electives by students in other degree programs. Canadian Studies may be combined with any other discipline or program in the Humanities or Social Sciences which offer a combined major program.

Together with the requirements for a combined major BA (Honours) in Canadian Studies, students may choose to fulfill the requirements for a Concentration in Canadian Cultural Texts and Practices or a Concentration in Canadian Society and Politics. These Concentrations allow students to develop a distinct emphasis on either Humanities or Social Sciences approaches to the study of Canada.

Program Notes

1.	It is strongly recommended that CANA students take one ABST or FREN credit as part of their degree program. One credit from FREN 1F00, 1F50, 1F90, 2F00, 3P73, 3P74, 3P96 recommended.
2.	One credit from COMM 1F90, ECON 1P91 and 1P92, ENGL 1F91, 1F95, 1F97, GEOG 1F90, HIST 1F95, 1F96, LABR 1F90, SOCI 1F90 strongly recommended for Political Science co-majors.

5.	Each student should meet with the Humanities Academic Adviser and the Chair/Director of the co-major discipline before the end of the first year of study, to ensure that his or her choice of courses meets the criteria for the combined major degree.
