What it isYou study the Anishinaabemowin language — the language of Anishinaabe peoples in the Great Lakes region — alongside broader Aboriginal Studies content. This is a dedicated language program, not a general Indigenous studies degree, so you spend significant time learning to speak, read, and write the language itself. It suits people with genuine interest in Indigenous languages and cultures, particularly those from Anishinaabe communities or those committed to language revitalization work.You study one modern language in depth — French, Spanish and Latin American culture, or Italian — alongside English literature and related humanities. Each stream lets you focus on the language itself, its literature, and the history and culture of regions where it's spoken. This suits you if you want genuine fluency in a second language combined with understanding of its cultural context, rather than a broad survey of multiple languages.You study a combination of philosophy, modern languages, and translation, rather than specializing in just one field. This interdisciplinary approach lets you explore how these subjects connect and inform each other, building flexibility in how you think about language and meaning. It suits students who are curious across multiple areas and want breadth alongside depth before deciding on a specific direction.This program lets you design your own degree by combining courses from multiple fields — anthropology, chemistry, English, history, philosophy, law, media studies, and others — rather than following a single major. You choose which subjects to focus on and how much depth in each, creating a customized path that suits your interests. It works well if you're curious about several areas and want flexibility to explore across disciplines before committing to one specialization.
