Emphasis in Critical Studies in Curriculum & Pedagogy

Critical Studies in Curriculum and Pedagogy (CSCP) is an Emphasis in the C&P program for MA, MEd and PhD students who are admitted into the program. 

The CSCP Emphasis encourages a critical exploration of educational phenomena, within and beyond the scope of schools. CSCP courses focus on social justice issues in education, including those related to: environmental justice, globalization, colonialism, race, disability, gender, sexuality, cultural and linguistic difference. 

How to Participate in the Critical Studies in Curriculum and Pedagogy Emphasis

It is not necessary to formally enrol in the CSCP Emphasis, nor do you need to declare in advance your intention to pursue the Emphasis. If you are a student in the Curriculum & Pedagogy program (C&P) in CTL you are eligible to have a C&P program Emphasis by simply completing three or more courses from the Emphasis course list. Once you successfully pass these courses, contact your program administrator in the Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning and request credit for satisfying the Emphasis requirements. This request must be made prior to graduation. Please note that not all courses are offered each year and that a course can only be used to satisfy the requirements of a single Emphasis.

Please note that not all the courses are offered every year. Please consult the ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø Registrar's Office & Student Experience (ROSE) website for courses available in any given term.
