The Interdisciplinary Master's Program in Disability Studies explores how societal factors, rather than physical or psychological aspects, shape individuals' experiences with disability. This approach transitions the perspective from medical treatment and prevention models to examining cultural, social, and political dimensions. Offered collaboratively by the University of Manitoba and the Canadian Centre on Disability Studies, this pioneering graduate program represents Canada's first of its kind. Community disability experts contribute as guest lecturers, speakers, or facilitators in accordance with University policies. Program Length - 2 years.
