Canadian Studies Minor


The minor has been developed as an area study in response to faculty, student and regional interest. The national origins of a large portion of the population of Southeastern Massachusetts reflect strong Canadian ties from both the French and English communities.

The program is designed to supplement and give a multicultural dimension to one’s major by an in‑depth study of our northern neighbor. The study is presented in the following academic areas: history, literature, geography, economics, music, sociology and political science.

Students may enter the Canadian studies minor during the sophomore or junior year and will be assigned an adviser in their major field, usually a member of Canadian Studies.

Three courses with at least one from each area (9 credits)


Two electives, one from each of the following two groups (6 credits)


Total minimum credits: 18


Students in the minor are encouraged to have some familiarity with French.
