Message from
the Principal:
As a student at Huron, you’ll
experience community. With small
class sizes founded on active
learning, you’ll have the chance
to engage directly with your
professors and classmates. Most of all, you’ll take
ownership over your learning and education.
Life beyond the classroom is vibrant. As a “university within
a university,” our affiliate designation means that you’re
part of Huron and Western University communities. You’ll
find an array of extracurricular opportunities here, but you’ll
also have access to Western’s extensive libraries, courses,
facilities and clubs. You truly get the best of all worlds.
Your life after Huron is one of possibility. Graduates have
gone on to do exciting, interesting work within academia,
banking, finance, health, law, education and not-for-profits.
Some have started their own businesses founded on
progressive principles. Others have pursued opportunities
abroad, using the international experiences gained at Huron
as a foundation for their lifelong learning.
Wherever your path leads, know that you can go
anywhere, confident your Huron education will give you
the framework to ensure that your journey is one of open
doors and discovery.

“When I heard about Herstmonceux, I knew that was where I wanted to go.
My first year at the castle was filled with courses that I was really interested
in and with those courses came field study, so we did weekend trips that were
related to what we were learning in class. That was what I loved the most.”

In their first year, students can try different
courses before choosing their program of study.
Through the Faculty of Arts and Social Science and Faculty
of Theology, Huron students may combine a Huron program
with a minor, major or specialization from another Huron
program or a major or a minor in many of the programs
offered at Western University, Brescia University College
or King’s University College. Huron students, therefore, have
almost limitless possibilities for program combinations.
In addition to offering students the flexibility to pursue a quality liberal arts
program of their choice, Huron does not require students to choose a specific
“module” (major area of study) until after they have completed their first year.
In their first year, students choose from a wide variety of courses. This allows
them to try out different courses at the University level before choosing the
program of study that best suits their academic needs and goals.

History
Area of Study
• History
Professor Sawako Akai, French & Asian Studies
The Department of French and Asian
Studies offers programs for students
interested in studying languages and
learning about other literatures and cultures.
Several modules of study are offered to
students who wish to get a BA (Honors or
Specialization) in French, to major in French
or East Asia Studies, as well as to have a
Minor in French, Chinese or Japanese.
Exchange programs with Universities in
France, Québec, China and Japan provide
opportunities for students to immerse
themselves in the study of language,
literature and culture.
Global Studies
Areas of Study
• Globalization Studies
• Global Development Studies
• Global Culture Studies
Huron University College
2013–2014 Viewbook
The Centre for Global Studies focuses on
the interdisciplinary study of the practices,
organizations, contexts and ideas through
which people are increasingly establishing
complex forms of interrelation, struggle
and communication with one another on
global scales.
Global Studies at Huron University College
allows students to approach their work from
a broad range of entry-points, including: those
that emphasize the address of global change
and policy goals to address these changes;
those that explore the global interrelations
of communities; and those that reflect on the
ideas and cultural expressions that structure
global interactions. Global Studies students
may pursue degree modules that reflect these
different, yet interrelated, approaches in
the three areas of study. The Centre for
Global Studies also offers a five–year dual
degree program, combining an Honours
Specialization module in any one of its three
streams of study with the Ivey Business
School HBA. See page 31 for details.
A sense of the past is essential to personal
identity, national unity and international
co-existence. Yet modern society makes
the past increasingly elusive. The study of
history produces both awareness of the
fragility of our knowledge of the past and
the critical tools we need to examine the
many versions of the past offered to us.
Students who choose to study History at
Huron benefit from the intensive interaction
between students and faculty that comes
with learning in a small-class environment.
The History program is structured in a way
that allows students to begin with a broad
approach (with the first-year introductory
course in World History) and then in their
second year to choose from a wider range
of more specialized courses. Huron
uniquely requires students to complete
a course in historical methods. History
students also take upper level seminar
courses that emphasize research essays
and presentations.
Interactive classes, readily available
professors, and a carefully designed,
coherent program of study which still
allows a considerable range of free choice
give students the foundation they need
to pursue a career or further studies.
Management & Organizational
Studies
Areas of Study
• Accounting
• Finance and Administration
• Management and Organizational Studies
• Organizational Studies, Policy, and Ethics
Management and Organizational Studies
(MOS) is a business program that adheres
to the proven philosophy that students are
best equipped for careers in business when
their academic training combines a strong
foundation in the social sciences and liberal
arts with conventional business subjects.
Taking a mix of these courses offers the
best framework for students, providing
them with solid business training and an
understanding of how people think and
work together, as well as the place of
business within Canada and the world.
Students enrolled in MOS will complete
a first year of study prior to choosing the
specific MOS module they wish to pursue.
MOS students have the opportunity to
participate in the BMOS Internship Program
to gain work experience. In the past, Huron
students have worked at a wide range
of companies including, IBM, Celestica,
Petro-Canada, Canada Revenue Agency,
and Research in Motion (RIM).
Philosophy
Political Science
Areas of Study
• Philosophy
• Philosophy, Reasoning and Ethics
• Ethics
• Religious Studies and Philosophy
Areas of Study
• Political Science
• Identity and Ideology
• Globalization and Governance
• State and Policy
Literally, philosophy means “the love of
wisdom.” Philosophy provides a framework
in which to understand the world and make
decisions. Students of philosophy learn to
critically analyze texts, reason, produce
logical arguments and communicate their
ideas in an effective and persuasive manner.
Political Science is an exploration of power,
influence and authority in society and
politics profoundly affects each of us in
our daily lives.
In the Philosophy program at Huron,
students can choose from courses in:
- Logic, language and reasoning
- The history of philosophy
- Ethics
- Political philosophy
- Philosophy of law
- Philosophy of art
Class discussion, debate and examination
of differing points of view are critical to the
study of philosophy and Huron’s small class
sizes foster this method of learning.
Whether or not we have a voice, live in just
and peaceful communities, enjoy a clean
environment, have access to education
and health care, are free of discrimination
or get a good job are all influenced by the
political process.
The study of Political Science at Huron
includes topics such as:
- Canadian and comparative government
- The nature of democracy
- Poverty in developing countries
- Chinese politics
- Causes of war
- Global environmental politics
- Media and elections
- Theories of the state
For a university of its size, Huron offers the
broadest range of Political Science modules
found anywhere in Canada.

“By the time students graduate, they realize the one-on-one contact allowed them
to improve their writing skills, to allow them better success at graduate school,

The Scholar’s Electives Program allows
students who have demonstrated outstanding
academic potential to apply to Huron
University College for admission to both a
primary discipline-based program of study
and the Scholar’s Electives module. The
module includes 3.0 courses taken in addition
to the requirements for an honors degree.
Students admitted to the Scholar’s Electives module will be
paired with a Faculty mentor who will serve as the student’s
primary academic advisor through regular meetings with
the student. Enrolment in Interdisciplinary Studies courses
in their first two years will be followed by self-designed
programs of independent guided reading and a tailored
research project.
The primary benefit of the Scholar’s Electives Program is
the additional challenge and the flexibility to achieve unique
personal and academic goals through interdisciplinary study
and mentorship.

lot easier to make connections between different courses that you might be taking
that you might not otherwise see.”

Huron University College
2013–2014 Viewbook
At Huron, you will experience the pride of
belonging to one of the oldest, most dynamic
schools in Canada. Founded in 1863 and
steeped in history, Huron has a 150 year
heritage of accomplishment and is the
founding institution of Western University.
With a limited enrollment of just 1,300
students, our small size provides students with
opportunities to engage with professors and
develop critical thinking and creativity through
discussion, debate, and hands-on learning.
