Program Description

Our two-year Northern Studies diploma program offers a supportive framework for a personalized selection of courses that is ideal for those interested in broadening or formalizing their knowledge of the North and the Circumpolar world and its social, political, historical and physical characteristics, issues and stories. Your northern expertise is rooted here in a northern experience. Northern Studies is a flexible program with a range of delivery options to suit your needs. Scheduled courses are offered face-to-face and online. Some courses may have weekly scheduled video-conferenced sessions, while others may run entirely in person or in a combination. See the course pages and course outlines for details. Spring courses generally run online to ensure the widest accessibility. Contact the School of Liberal Arts or a program advisor for assistance or for more information about our programs and courses in general or to see if the highly flexible NOST diploma is your next step.
