People of Ukrainian heritage have made a significant social, economic and cultural contribution to Canada. The study of this community, its past and present, provides an understanding of the Ukrainian heritage and its role in Canadian society. Our interdisciplinary program encourages students to pursue their own topics of interests within a Ukrainian Canadian context. Students may explore Ukrainian Canadian pop culture, religious experiences, art, literature, history and political and economic impacts.
