The Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Anti-racism Office is currently providing a list of classes featuring substantial Indigenous and Black content, including Indigenous knowledges, cultures, histories, languages, and politics.
While this project is a work in progress, our goal is to temporarily help students access an online database of these offerings. This resource will aid those interested in these critical areas in finding relevant academic opportunities.
To view the full catalogue of University of Waterloo course offerings, please visit the Academic Calendar.
