Canadian American Studies

Canada and the United States, sharing a continent and linked by profound economic ties, shared historical experiences, and numerous cultural similarities, also exhibit many notable differences. The Canadian-American Studies program offers a comprehensive overview of these relationships, helping students grasp how these similarities and differences influence key cultural, environmental, and economic issues in North America, both today and in the future. The program includes hands-on experiences through field trips to Canada and provides valuable research and internship opportunities. Students can pursue Canadian-American Studies independently or combine it with other disciplines, such as environmental science and policy, international business, geography, anthropology, political science, marketing, communications, journalism, history, and foreign languages, to gain a richer, more nuanced international perspective.
