Drawing on disciplines such as art and architecture, literature and language studies, history and politics, sociology and religion, Indigenous studies and women’s studies (to name only some of the relevant areas), the SICS program at Carleton encourages new ways of exploring Canada and the diverse peoples, places and practices located within its boundaries.

The School of Indigenous and Canadian Studies at Carleton offers an interdisciplinary program leading to a three-year Bachelor of Arts (BA) General degree, a four-year Honours BA degree or a four-year Combined Honours BA degree.

The School of Indigenous and Canadian Studies encourages you to take some of these courses, based on your own interests. This will enrich your unique program of study and the credits can count towards your degree. You are encouraged to consult with your professors regularly. The intimate nature of the School ensures that you get to know your professors as they will help you develop your understanding of Canada.
