The Minor in Politics is comprised of several types of courses that might be loosely grouped into two streams: courses that focus on Canadian government, politics and policy, and courses that approach their subject matter from a global or comparative perspective. Students may select a configuration of courses that provides depth in one stream or a cross-section of both. In either case, the Minor in Politics provides students from other programs with understanding of the political world.

The Politics Minor is not available to Politics and Governance Program students; Public Administration Program students.
