The Canadian Studies Center, one of the Jackson School's eight Title VI centers forms a National Resource Center with the Center for Canadian-American Studies at Western Washington University. Founded in 1986, the Center promotes comparative Canadian content in the curriculum and with faculty and graduate research projects. Currently Canada is represented by faculty and research scientists in 17 departments in Arts and Sciences, 11 of the University's professional schools and U.W. Seattle, Tacoma and Bothell. The program hosts an undergraduate degree, a Professional Development Program for the graduate students, and has a grant for Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowships. The mission of the Center is to increase knowledge about Canada and the Canada-U.S relationship at the University, with local business leaders and public officials, K-12 educators regionally and nationally, and the American general public.
