Canadian studies

Canadian Studies is a Collegiate study of Canadian culture, Canadian languages, literature, Quebec, agriculture, history, and their government and politics. Most universities recommend that students take a double major (i.e. Political Science, International Relations) and French, if not included in the course. Some careers for students who take Canadian Studies include the foreign service and working at Canadian embassies or the US Embassy in Canada.
