Unique Academic Programs

• Canadian American Studies - The Center for Canadian American Studies at Western Washington University is one of only two U.S. Department of Education designated National Resource Centers for the study of Canada in the United States
• Salish Sea Institute - Given our placement on the edge of the Salish Sea, in Coast Salish territories, and near the international border, Western Washington University created the Salish Sea Institute to raise awareness and protection for the Salish Sea. At the Salish Sea Institute, we work to share knowledge across disciplines and borders. We created a minor in Salish Sea Studies to teach students about the Salish Sea’s history, ecology, culture, and management complexities.
• The Ray Wolpow Institute For the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Crimes Against Humanity - Our mission is to advance knowledge about the Holocaust and genocide, including ethnic and religious conflict as well as attendant human rights abuses. The institute is home to two academic minors, one in Holocaust and Genocide Studies and another in Human Rights, the latter offered in partnership with Fairhaven College
• College of the Environment Spatial Institute - The Spatial Institute is an interdisciplinary center for spatial research in Environmental Sciences, Environmental Studies, Geography, Resilience, and related fields. Housed within the College of the Environment, the Institute provides opportunities for collaboration within the College, across Western Washington University, and with the broader community.
