FSS Research

On the strength of Canada's two major intellectual traditions, anglophone and francophone, the Faculty of Social Sciences stands as a centre of excellence in knowledge creation, research and training. Driven by both disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, research at the Faculty is at once rich, innovative and varied, contributing to the depth and breadth of discussions on current issues here and elsewhere. And whether fundamental, theoretical, applied or action-oriented (action research), this research stems from proven expertise—most notably in Canada's Francophonie—and greatly influences individual communities and society in general.

In step with contemporary society on both the national and international fronts, the Faculty of Social Sciences fosters social innovation, creates and shares knowledge, promotes public policy development and builds research partnerships with the public and private sectors, as well as community organizations.

Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Fellow Engagement Series

The graduate school experience is an isolating one. Now more than ever, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows have to navigate higher education as independents who are expected to succeed academically. Academic responsibilities aside, many graduate students quietly live complicated lives while pursuing higher education, which universities do not always consider in valuing achievement.

Décolonisation et conservation des objets autochtones

Résumé : Faire de la place aux voix et perspectives autochtones entre les murs d’institutions dont les fondements sont souvent issus d’une période coloniale - qui a par ailleurs vu les nations autochtones être dépossédées de leur patrimoine culturel - comporte plusieurs défis.

Decolonization and conservation of Indigenous objects

Abstract : Making space for Indigenous voices and perspectives within the walls of institutions whose foundations are often rooted in a colonial period - which also saw Indigenous nations dispossessed of their cultural heritage - presents many challenges. The purpose of this conference is to discuss the various issues surrounding the acquisition, documentation, display, management, and restitution of Indigenous objects in the current context of decolonization and Indigenization initiatives in memory institutions across Canada.
