Faculty of Liberal Arts and Professional Studies (AP)

This program represents the “cutting edge” in social justice studies, bringing together anti-racist, ethnic and Indigenous studies in a unique program that enables students to explore the specific concerns of racialized, immigrant or Indigenous communities while learning about their interconnections. Students can choose to focus on Indigenous studies, diasporic studies or globalization studies (or a combination of the three). The program is designed for students preparing for graduate studies, professional studies or employment in education, public administration, law or law enforcement, immigration, social work, the health professions, policy work and non-governmental organizations. Students focusing on Indigenous studies can enter the department’s MA/PhD program in Indigenous Thought.

Students begin the program with AP/REI 2100 6.00: Critical Studies in Race, Ethnicity and Indigeneity and a choice of either AP/REI 2050 6.00: Introduction to Indigenous Studies, AP/REI 3580 6.00: Ethnic Communities in Canada or AP/REI 3620 6.00 Racism and Colonialism. They then take a choice of electives addressing anti-racism, diasporic communities, globalization or Indigenous studies. They complete the program with AP/REI 4700 6.00: Indigenous and Anti-Racist Research and AP/REI 4705 6.00: Anti-Racist and Indigenous Theory.
