The University of King’s College is one of the oldest universities in Canada and also one of the smallest. The college offers concentration, major or honours degrees in arts, science and journalism, and its commitment to the humanities is reflected in its unique academic programs. MSvyD7r

The Foundation Year Program is a comprehensive, inter-disciplinary examination of the development of Western culture from ancient to contemporary times. FYP has a national reputation for excellence as an alternative first-year of undergraduate studies in arts, science or journalism. King’s programs in journalism combine a well-rounded humanities education with the craft of print, online or broadcast journalism. The Contemporary Studies program provides an interdisciplinary approach to contemporary European and North American culture. Early Modern Studies provides an interdisciplinary study of the early modern period in Europe. History of Science and Technology is King’s newest program, providing an interdisciplinary study of the evolution and role of the scientific method in Western thought, from ancient to modern times, in the context of cultural developments as a whole.

Many of King's scholars study and write on historical periods, and on questions of philosophical importance; in other words, direct social utility is difficult to define. However, King’s is an innovator in science studies, which considers many topical issues. In addition, King’s is strongly committed to public lecture series which over the years have presented scholarly research and presentations on current affairs to as broad an audience as possible; the Journalism series in particular attracts large audiences, as does this year’s Trust in Science series. Faculty are offered normal support such as research grants and conference travel. Students are encouraged to aid in research through the new Student Assistant Programme, and to publish their work in student journals. King's is more committed to achievement in teaching than in research, but the congenial collegiate atmosphere and the excellence of the students mean that top researchers are happy to remain here. The best arts students are strongly attracted to the intellectual environment offered at King’s.bB3i(ooGWy.m

Exchange arrangements may be made for students to complete part of their degree program abroad in any one of more than 20 countries in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe and North America. The College of Arts and Science offers a number of programs which enable students to pursue part of their studies in another country and culture, often in a foreign language environment. There are two types of student exchange programs. University wide programs allow for the exchange of students from any appropriate academic unit at the universities involved, and are coordinated by Dalhousie University’s Study Abroad/Exchange Services. Department/Faculty-based programs normally involve the exchange of students between two similar academic units at the universities who are party to the exchange agreement, and are normally coordinated by an individual within the Department/Faculty. Additional information on exchange programs can be found at [url]www.dal.ca/iss.[/url]
