The School

Director:. Pauline Rankin
Graduate Supervisor: Donna Patrick

The School of Canadian Studies offers unique interdisciplinary programs of study and research leading to the degrees of M.A. and Ph.D. in Canadian Studies.

The graduate programs in Canadian Studies enable students to develop individual areas of concentration to meet particular interests in a broad range of Canadian issues.

At the M.A. level, students can undertake interdisciplinary research areas, which include Aboriginal Studies and the North, Women's Studies, Canadian Cultural Studies and Cultural Policy, and Heritage Conservation.

A joint Ph.D. degree program with Trent University was introduced in 2000. This program builds on the combined strengths of the existing M.A. programs at the two universities, and provides Canada's only full interdisciplinary doctoral program in Canadian Studies. It has further enriched the graduate offerings by including five fields of study: Culture, Literature and the Arts; Environment and Heritage; Women's Studies; Policy, Economy and Society; and Identities.

The Aboriginal Studies and the North program area was initiated through a grant from the Donner Foundation. Students research a wide range of cultural, economic and political issues concerning First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities as well as Northern Canada. Although the same conditions and requirements apply as in other program areas, here special consideration may be given to candidates for admission who have extensive knowledge of the north or of Aboriginal peoples.

Students in the Women's Studies program area in Canadian Studies examine the ways in which gender affects our local, national and global environment. In particular, students examine the interplay within the Canadian context between sex/gender as a dynamic principle in the processes of nation building and the construction of cultural and political identities.

The School also offers a program area in Canadian Cultural Studies and Cultural Policy. The program is geared towards students with a broad interest in traditional and popular music, art, film, literature, performing arts, cultural theory, and the role of cultural institutions and cultural policy.

The Heritage Conservation program area offers an interdisciplinary focus on Canadian intangible and tangible heritage. It is designed primarily as a professional development path, but also provides a setting for reflective academic inquiry.

Students interested in examining the interplay between Policy, Economy, and Canadian Society will develop a critical interdisciplinary perspective on policy debates informing the changing nature and the struggles to define and claim Canada. Students are invited to engage competing perspectives on Canadian identity and values, and major policy debates in Canada.

Students can also explore the complexities of individual, collective and communal identities in a Canadian context. Intersections, relationships and conflicts among gender, racial, spatial, class, sexual and national identities can be examined. Students are encouraged to undertake critical analyses of Canadian theoretical debates in this field, as well as international scholarship in identity studies.

The work of the School is conducted with the assistance of faculty and availability of coursework in a variety of supporting departments including: Architecture, Art History, Economics, English, Film Studies, French, Geography, History, Journalism and Communication, Law, Linguistics and Applied Language Studies, Mass Communications, Music, Political Economy, Political Science, Psychology, Public Policy and Administration, Social Work, Sociology and Anthropology, and Women's Studies. Carleton University's proximity to the National Library, the National Gallery of Canada, the national museums, the Library of Parliament, the National Archives of Canada, Statistics Canada, the Heritage Canada Foundation, Parks Canada, embassies and the libraries of various government departments ensures excellent research facilities for graduate candidates in Canadian Studies.

Qualifying-Year Program

Applicants who do not qualify for direct admission to the master's program may, in exceptional cases, be admitted to a qualifying-year program. However, admission to the qualifying-year program does not imply automatic admission to the master's program. At the end of the qualifying-year program the student will be required to apply for entry into the master's program, at which time the School will determine the student's eligibility to enter the program.

Master of Arts

 

Admission Requirements

Applicants are required to hold an Honours B.A. (or the equivalent), with at least high honours standing, in one of the disciplines represented in the School.

Language Requirement

The School requires a reading knowledge of French. This requirement may be satisfied in the following ways:

  • Successful completion of FINS 3105 or its equivalent (with a grade of B- or better).
  • Successful completion of a French language examination.
  • Alternatively, a student may fulfil this requirement with a demonstrated knowledge of an Aboriginal language.

The School conducts the French language examinations in September and January. Students choosing the first option should note that examination results in these courses form part of their record, although they are additional to the course requirements for the degree.

Program Requirements

The minimum requirements for the master's program are outlined in the General Regulations section of this Calendar.

The School of Canadian Studies specifies that all candidates must select one of the following program patterns:

  • 4.0 credits, and an M.A. Comprehensive Examination, or
  • 3.0 credits, and a research essay (CDNS 5908, 1.0 credit), or
  • 2.0 credits, and a thesis (CDNS 5909, 2.0 credits).

Whichever pattern is selected, all students in the master's program are required to take CDNS 5001 and two of the following courses: CDNS 5101, CDNS 5102, CDNS 5201, CDNS 5202, CDNS 5301, CDNS 5302, CDNS 5401, CDNS 5402, CDNS 5501, CDNS 5601.

Comprehensive Examinations

Students are required to file with the School their choice of the Comprehensive Examination option no later than the end of the second term of registration for students enrolled full-time, and no later than the end of the fifth term of registration for students enrolled part-time. A committee will be assigned to each candidate choosing this option. The committee will advise and assist the student to prepare for the comprehensive examination. Normally, the comprehensive examinations are written, but may, with the approval of the graduate supervisor, be oral. The comprehensive examination normally will be undertaken in the academic year in which the student completes CDNS 5001, but, with the approval of the graduate supervisor, may be undertaken at a later point in the student's program. The School schedules comprehensive examinations in December and April.

Thesis/Research Essay Proposal

Students must declare their option as comprehensive, thesis, or research essay no later than the end of the second term of registration for students enrolled full-time, and no later than the end of the fifth term of registration for students enrolled part-time. These deadlines are April 30 for students beginning their program in September and August 31 for students starting in January. At the time of declaring their option, thesis/research essay students are also encouraged to declare a preliminary topic and tentative list of potential supervisors. Thesis/research essay students must submit a research proposal to the School that has been approved by their thesis/research essay supervisor no later than the third term of registration for students enrolled full-time and no later than the sixth term of registration for students enrolled part-time. Failure to meet this deadline will result in a denial of registration for the thesis/research essay until the approved proposal has been submitted.

Proficiency in English

Proficiency in English is necessary to pursue graduate studies at Carleton University. All applicants whose first language is not English must satisfy this requirement by presenting a TOEFL score of 600 or better.

Ph.D. Program in Canadian Studies
(joint program between Carleton University and Trent University)

 

Doctor of Philosophy

The doctoral program is offered jointly by the School of Canadian Studies at Carleton University and the Frost Centre for Canadian Studies and Native Studies at Trent University.

The Ph.D. program offers five fields of study: Culture, Literature, and the Arts; Environment and Heritage; Policy, Economy and Society; Identities; and Women's Studies. The program of courses and thesis guidance, drawing upon the faculty of the two academic units and universities, will encompass course requirements, comprehensive examinations, and a thesis.

The Ph.D. program in Canadian Studies normally will be undertaken on a full-time basis. In cases of exceptional merit, the School will accept a few candidates for the degree on a part-time basis.

Admission Requirements

The requirement for admission into the Ph.D. program is a master's degree (or equivalent), with at least high honours standing in Canadian Studies or one of the disciplines represented in the School. Applicants should note, however, that meeting the admission requirement does not guarantee admission to the program.

Language Requirement

All doctoral students are required to pass the Ph.D. program's language test. The language test entails the translation into English of a French text (or a text in another approved language such as an Aboriginal language indigenous to Canada or another language if it is demonstrably relevant to their research interest). The language test is two hours long, and students are permitted to use a dictionary. Grades for the language test are Pass or Fail.

Students who have taken a language test as a requirement for their M.A. cannot use it to meet the Ph.D. language requirement. In order to establish equal treatment of all students, all doctoral candidates will be required to pass the Ph.D. language test.

Program Requirements

Doctoral candidates must successfully complete 10.0 credits. Candidates with deficiencies in certain areas may be admitted to the Ph.D. program, but normally will be required to complete additional work. The specific requirements are as follows:

  • 1.0 credit for successful completion of CDNS 6900, the mandatory core seminar;
  • 1.0 credit for successful completion of two courses or tutorials (or the equivalent) drawn from the graduate list offered by the School, below, with one 0.5-credit course drawn from each of the candidate's two major fields of study; a GPA of 9.0 or better must be obtained in these courses for students to be allowed to proceed to the comprehensive examinations;
  • 1.0 credit for successful completion of two 0.5-credit written comprehensive examinations. Students will be examined in two fields;
  • Satisfactory demonstration of an understanding of a language other than English. Although French is the preferred second language, students may be permitted to substitute an Aboriginal language indigenous to Canada or another language if it is demonstrably relevant to their research interests;
  • A public defence, in English, of a written thesis proposal. Following the completion of their comprehensives, students will be expected to defend a proposal of the research and analysis they plan to undertake in completing their Ph.D. thesis. The thesis proposal defence should normally occur within six months after completion of a student's comprehensive examinations. The thesis committee will be composed of three faculty members, always including one from each university;
  • A 7.0-credit thesis, which must be successfully defended in English at an oral examination.

Academic Standing

All Ph.D. candidates must obtain at least B+ standing or better (GPA 9.0) in each course counted towards the degree. Comprehensive examinations (which will be graded on a Satisfactory, Unsatisfactory or Pass with Distinction basis) are exempted from this required standing.

Comprehensive Examinations

Full-time students are expected to complete their comprehensive examinations within 24 months of their initial registration in the Ph.D. program. Part-time Ph.D. students should finish their comprehensive examinations within 36 months of completing course work. Both full-time and part-time students should complete their comprehensive examinations before defending their dissertation proposal.

At the discretion of the School, candidates may be required to take an oral examination following the written examination.

The fields of study for the Ph.D. comprehensive examinations are to be chosen from the following list:

Culture, Literature, and the Arts
A general knowledge of theories of culture in general, Canadian theoretical discourses on cultural practices, and on the interplay among theory, art, and literature, and their social contexts.
Environment and Heritage
A general knowledge of locality, landscape, environment and region in Canada.
Policy, Economy and Society
A general knowledge of the complex web of relationships linking economy, civil society, and public policy in Canada and their interaction within social, political, and cultural life.
Identities
A general knowledge of the character and experience of individual, collective and communal identities in Canada.
Women's Studies
A general knowledge of women's experiences of the major dynamics of social, political, economic and cultural development at all levels of Canadian life.

Thesis Proposal

All students must defend publicly a thesis proposal after completing their comprehensive examinations. Full-time students must complete this requirement within the first two years of registration in the program.
