Québec Summer Seminar

June 14-19, 2009

The Québec Summer Seminar (QSS) is the flagship program in the United States for professors of Québec Studies seeking a deeper appreciation of contemporary Québec. The QSS, a week long experience convened in Québec, is purposely designed to offer participants a holistic approach to the study of Québec that incorporates historical, cultural, social, economic, commercial and political perspectives. Since 1978, the QSS continues to significantly contribute to the growth of Québec Studies across the United States by providing a robust multidisciplinary professional development opportunity for academics. Those interested in enhancing Québec Studies content in their course offerings and/or research are particularly encouraged to register in our program.

The QSS begins Monday morning, June 15 and concludes mid-day on Friday, June 19. The program includes meetings with leading Québec experts for discussions on essential historical, political, cultural, social, and economic topics.
