Canadian Studies

Canadian Studies is an interdisciplinary academic field that explores the history, culture, politics, society, and identity of Canada. It examines how the country's diverse populations, Indigenous peoples, and regional differences shape its development. The field encourages understanding Canada's contributions both domestically and internationally, fostering a deeper appreciation of its values, challenges, and unique place in the world. Through analysis of literature, history, economic policies, and social issues, Canadian Studies provides insight into what makes Canada distinctive and helps students, researchers, and citizens engage thoughtfully with the nation's past and present.
