Concurrent Teacher Education
Program (CTEP) in Religious
Education
This program is designed to prepare
future leaders in Catholic education:
confident and grounded teachers of the
religious education curriculum; leaders
who embody the principles of social
justice; dedicated lay people who carry
forward the work of the founding religious
congregations in Toronto. Unlike the
consecutive program (an honours degree
followed by a bachelor of education) the
concurrent program integrates subject
education and teacher training over the
same length of time. Students study
for both degrees simultaneously in a
program that combines academic study
with experiential learning and community
service.
Admission category: Humanities

Concurrent Teacher Education
Program (CTEP) at Victoria College
The Concurrent Teacher Education
Program (CTEP) integrates undergraduate
study and teacher training over five

of Arts (BA) or Science (BSc) degree
from the Faculty of Arts & Science,

from the Ontario Institute for Studies in
Education (OISE). The Vic CTEP program
is designed for students who wish to
teach at the primary/junior level (K-6).
The teacher candidates receive teacher
training and learn a basic knowledge
of the urban environment. As part of
their academic requirements, students
participate in community service and
teaching placements in Ontario schools.

Contemporary Asian Studies
The Contemporary Asian Studies (CAS)
program is a dynamic, cross-disciplinary
program appropriate for students who
are interested in Asian and global
affairs. The CAS program focuses on
understanding Asia's current position in
the global community, the historical and
contemporary linkages that exist within
this community, and current issues and
debates that affect Asia. The Pan-Asian
focus of CAS courses combined with
elective courses offered by varying
departments allows CAS students an
opportunity to take an active role in
shaping their studies.
Admission category: Jointly listed under
Humanities and Social Sciences.
