The International Development program provides students with an opportunity to pursue interdisciplinary and comparative studies of long-term change and international inequality.

A broad coverage of the process of international development, from the perspectives of history and social science, forms the basis for more in-depth study on such topics as economic development, the environment, gender, agriculture and rural life, politics and administration, and the Latin American region.

The primary participating departments are Economics, Geography, Political Science, and Sociology and Anthropology.

Engage with the world, combine exploration of the complex economic and social changes that are happening across the world with the opportunity to focus on an area of emphasis that is close to your own interests. Gain experience by working alongside a development organization in Canada or internationally and study abroad. Prepare to be in-demand from employers in business, government and civil society that are looking for the brightest minds with the skills to bring about social change in a complex and interdependent world.

Economics and Business;

Gender and Development;
