Canadian Studies

Interested in exploring the history, culture, literature, politics and economy of this country? Then Ottawa is your destination of choice. The Institute of Canadian Studies was founded to explore the complexity of Canada and promote a deeper understanding of our country. In these programs, you will have a chance to take courses in both English and French, which not only helps you become functionally bilingual, but also will put you more in touch with Canada's two founding linguistic cultures.

The Institute of Canadian Studies also offers a minor in Jewish Canadian studies. For details, see the “Jewish Canadian studies” page.
