The Institute of European, Russian and Eurasian Studies (EURUS) offers its master's students an unparalleled opportunity to do scholarly research with experts on Europe and European integration, Central and Southeast Europe, Russia, the Caucasus and Central Asia. Renowned for its expertise and research in this field, Carleton also houses a European Union Centre of Excellence. In addition to the embassies, consulates and non-governmental organizations located in Ottawa, federal government departments such as the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade, Public Safety Canada and the Immigration and Refugee Board maintain direct relations with Europe, Russia and Eurasia. Close contacts through our professors and alumni with governmental organizations and the diplomatic community benefit our students for internship, co-op, and career opportunities.

| Additional Admission Requirements: | Students interested in admission into the co-op education option must apply by the end of the first semester of academic study. To be eligible for admission to the co-op option, students must: be registered in the M.A. in European, Russian and Eurasian Studies; have successfully completed, by the start-date of the first work term, the required first-year core classes EURR 5001 Interdisciplinary Seminar in European, Russian and Eurasian Studies and EURR 5010 Research Design and Methodology in European, Russian and Eurasian Studies; be registered full-time in each academic term prior to work term; and be eligible to work in Canada (for off-campus work terms).
Meeting the preceding requirements only establishes eligibility for admission to the co-op option - the prevailing job market may limit enrollment in it. Students should also note that hiring priority is given to Canadian citizens for co-op positions under the auspices of the Public Service Commission. Work terms for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies co-op students exist in a variety of public and private sector fields. Every effort will be made to ensure that there are appropriate work opportunities available, but there are no assurances that a co-op position will be found. Students with a high CGPA, enthusiasm, and potential, however, will have a competitive edge in securing co-op employment. Students will be assisted by the Carleton University Co-op Office to find work term positions. |
