X. Degree Programs
Bachelor of Arts (B.A.)
European Studies (EURS)
Interdisciplinary Program
The European Studies program is designed for students who seek a career in International Relations - especially in International Business and Administration - between Canada and Europe. It offers a combination of languages, specially designed courses in European thought, letters and history and specialization in either European Business or European Culture and Civilization
Successful completion of the European Studies major requires proficiency in one of the following languages (French, German, Italian or Spanish). In order to demonstrate language proficiency, students have two options: they may study for a year at a European University, in the country where their chosen core language is spoken, or they may write a final research paper in the chosen core language within a required fourth year European Studies course (see EURO*4740). It is highly recommended that students spend their third year studying at a European university, in the country where their chosen core language is spoken. The benefits of such an experience are considerable, both academically and personally. One specific academic outcome of a successful year abroad will be recognition that the student has fulfilled the program's core language requirement. Those who can demonstrate that they have written a major academic paper or exam in their chosen language while participating in an approved study year may be waived from the required course EURO*4740. See the Coordinator for the European Studies program for more information. See also the course description for EURO*4740.

A minimum of 13.00 credits is required, including:
-
the three components of the European Studies core (8.00 credits)
