Northern Studies
Academic Coordinator: G. Poelzer (International Centre for Northern Governance and Development)
The University of Saskatchewan is a member institution of the
University of the Arctic, a consortium of more than 100 colleges,
universities, research institutes, and indigenous organizations from
around the eight Arctic states (Canada, Denmark/Greenland, Finland,
Iceland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and USA/Alaska). UArctic has developed
seven 3 credit-unit courses focusing on northern issues, which are
available to students at all UArctic member institutions. As a
consortium member, the University of Saskatchewan has committed to
recognizing and offering credit for these courses. These courses form
the core of the interdisciplinary B.A. program in Northern Studies. The
Northern Studies program offers students the opportunity to learn about
the lands, peoples and issues of the circumpolar North with a special
emphasis given to matters concerning indigenous people. Students
pursuing a degree in Northern Studies are required to complete an
advanced emphasis stream in either aboriginal administration or
environmental impact assessment and must also meet Program Type B
requirements of the College of Arts & Science.
The
Coordinator, Interdisciplinary Programs provides administrative support
to the Northern Studies Coordinator, as well as being the initial
contact for students requiring assistance; E-mail: contact.nrth@arts.usask.ca.
