Administrative history

The Faculty of Arts at UBC has offered German language and literary programming since the University’s inauguration, with a separate Department of German created in 1946 to reflect an expansion in course offerings. The name was changed to the Department of Germanic Studies in 1974 with the addition of Swedish-language courses, and further courses on Scandinavian and Northern European language, literature, and culture continued to expand its scope. In 1999, the department merged with the former Department of Slavonic Studies to become the Department of Germanic Studies and Russian and Slavonic Studies. Following the addition of the undergraduate program in Modern European Studies, the department acquired its present name and focus.

The Department of Central, Eastern and Northern European Studies (CENES) offers cultural, literary, and media studies courses that span the areas of Central, Eastern and Northern Europe. It offers undergraduate majors and minors in Modern European Studies, German Studies, Nordic Studies, and Russian; as well as a Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy.
