Germanic and Slavic Studies
The Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies offers one of the largest programs in Germanic Studies in Canada, the only Russian major in British Columbia and the only university-level courses in Ukrainian language and culture on Vancouver Island.

- offering variety of courses that reflect many interests -- language and culture, vampirology, Stalinism, Holocaust studies and literature
- promoting experiential learning opportunities, such as a field school and theatre group, as well as opportunities to study abroad
- encouraging student engagement through innovative in-course projects and interdisciplinary approaches to learning and teaching
- supporting active student involvement in campus life, through the German and Russian clubs
