Faculty: Faculty of Arts | Department: Rural Development | Study mode: full-time | Location: Brandon, Manitoba, Canada
Core courses in Rural Development combine with courses from Business Administration, Economics, Geography, Native Studies, Political Science and Sociology. Students may major in rural development with a minor in a traditional discipline, and gain research experience through the Rural Development Institute.
