Canadian Studies & Indigenous Studies M.A. program
The Master’s programme in Canadian Studies and Indigenous Studies has established itself as the foremost program of its kind. With Canada as both a subject and context for inquiry, the MA areas of study include Canada in a global context; cultural heritage, literature, theory and the arts; environmental politics, policy and natural heritage; Aboriginal peoples; political economy, labour and community development; women and gender; identities and difference in Canada. Reflecting the breadth of the field itself, this multidisciplinary program draws upon the scholarly knowledge and expertise from the humanities, social sciences and other interdisciplinary fields such as environmental studies and gender studies. Master’s students select between a twelve month course and research-based program, or a twenty-four month course and thesis-based option.
