The Centre of Canadian Studies (CCS) is internationally recognized as a leading European centre for the interdisciplinary study of Canada.

Areas of research interest:

* Aboriginal politics, society and culture
* Language politics
* Multilevel and circumpolar governance
* Multiculturalism
* Nationalism
* Constitutional studies

* Comparative public policy in Canada, UK and Europe
* Comparative research on Canada, Africa and South Asia
* Comparative research on Canada and Scotland

CCS offers doctoral co-supervision with specialists in Politics and International Relations, Sociology, Social Policy, Social Anthropology, Social Work, History, Celtic and Scottish Studies, English Literature and Law.
