Program Description

Northern Studies is an interdisciplinary field of particular importance to the University of Northern British Columbia, and of growing relevance globally. Circumpolar environmental processes are becoming recognized as key indicators of global change; circumpolar indigenous peoples are gaining a greater voice both nationally and internationally; circumpolar political arrangements are illustrating new forms of regional governance. For these and other reasons, a better understanding of northern conditions and issues is needed. Students are required to complete 54 credit hours of coursework consisting of seven core courses (21 credit hours); one course (3 credit hours) in Methodology; at least five courses (15 credit hours) from the "Environment and Health" list of courses, and at least five courses (16 credit hours) from the "Culture and People" list of courses.
