Canada is a multicultural nation in which people of Ukrainian origin have made a significant contribution. The study of the ethnic community, its past and present, will provide a general understanding of Ukrainian heritage and its role in Canadian society. With more than three-quarters of Canadians living in urban areas, this new program is an appropriate addition to the Faculty's multidisciplinary offerings. Students may select courses from Anthropology, Economics, Geography, History, Political Studies or Sociology to examine the environment and condition of urban areas both in the present and the past. Students who wish to major in Economics or Political Studies will find this program of particular interest.
Students explore women's roles in society from cross-cultural and a Canadian perspective.
Traditional and feminist views of women, the psychology of women, women's economic roles, their relationships to men and to each other, the history of women's rights movement all are aspects of the program. The social sciences and humanities are about us, our heritage and our world today.
