Course Information

Canadian Studies is offered as a combined major. As a Canadian Studies co-major, you’ll confront the intersection of Canada’s rich history with culture, cultural policy, politics, economics and geography.

Our courses explore Canada from many angles. We take advantage of our geographic position to explore the impact of the border on culture and trade in Canada.

Canadian Studies students are in demand at home and abroad. Here in Canada, your skills are urgently needed to communicate with international businesses, politicians, tourists, and more. Your knowledge is sought after in the fields of education, law and the civil service.

Areas of concentration are available in Canadian Cultural Texts and Practices, Canadian Society and Politics, or Francophone Canada: Language and Culture.

Canadian Studies reflects on how we create meaning for the nation across time and space, among our social relationships and institutions, within and beyond our cultural and territorial boundaries, and through a variety of disciplinary perspectives. Our goal is to help students understand perceptions of Canada through intensive engagement with Canadian histories, texts and practices.

The Centre for Canadian Studies at Brock offers a combined major program that draws upon teaching and research resources from other disciplines in the Humanities and Social Sciences. Canadian Studies students and faculty explore the empirical realities of the nation while considering various interpretations and representations of these realities. Canadian Studies courses enhance our students’ ability to place ideas and information within a critical assessment of how meanings of Canada are created, consolidated and contested at different times and among different regions and communities.
