Integrated courses of study exploring connections between disciplines in arts and science, normally team-taught. The courses are issue-oriented and issues will vary over time. The choice of subject will partly depend on faculty and student interest. Only available to students in the Akademia program.

The course is designed to help new students optimize their university learning experience. The development of the individual student in the university learning environment will be examined under four headings: the history and role of universities; human development models related to academic and personal growth; methods used in scholarly and scientific disciplines and; ethical issues related to the university.

An interdisciplinary approach to environmental issues which offers opportunities to investigate social processes and philosophical considerations with respect to the position and influence of humankind, and the development of social conditions, values and economic activities that have led to our present situation. These investigations are carried out within the context of physical environmental considerations, such as the sate of the earth, forests, air water and our use of energy, and will lead the student to a detailed consideration of the future. (Offered through distance education format only.)

An interdisciplinary introduction to Canadian Studies which examines the concepts, narratives, frameworks and images by and through which "Canada" has been represented, constructed and understood, including the interests which those representations serve. The first half of the course introduces students to the various approaches, methods and discourses whereby scholars in various social science and humanities disciplines construct and seek to understand various aspects of the Canadian experience. The second half of the course then concerns itself with application of these approaches and interpretations, organized around such topics as regionalism, Quebec, native peoples, gender, ethnicity, and Canada in North America. This is a two-semester course. When you select it you will be assigned to UNIV*2101 in the Fall and UNIV*2102 in the Winter semester. A grade will not be assigned to UNIV*2101 until UNIV*2102 has been completed.
