Interdisciplinary Social Science 2017

The ISS program at York is in essence a multitude of various disciplines under one roof. It is a great program that introduces many relevant discourses in the field of Social Sciences. It allows you to explore your interests and seek the path that enhances your individual academic strengths. Students of ISS are well supported by the department and the associate supervisors are always willing to answer questions/concerns to ensure your success as a student!

Looking back, I am pleasantly surprised with how fast my four years of undergraduate study went by. I remember feeling quite apprehensive coming in as a first year student. There were so many unknowns. I set out goals for myself and worked hard to achieve them, and at the end it was all worth it.

My education at York helped me plan and prepare to pursue my goals in graduate studies. Currently, I am a Master's student at the Department of Social Anthropology at York. I would not have been able to continue my studies without the help and support of the many exceptional professors at York whom I have had the privilege of learning from. I owe a debt of gratitude for their knowledge, experiences and devotion to lead a lecture hall that is more than a classroom, where learning is not just taught, it is exchanged. These are the same qualities I aspire to have as a future educator.
