Education and Student Resources

York University’s Critical Disability Studies Graduate Students' Association (CDSSA) will be launching an annual graduate student journal in fall 2009.   Critical Disability Discourse is a bilingual, interdisciplinary journal, publishing articles that focus on experiences of disability within a predominantly Canadian context.  The journal considers articles from scholars in a variety of academic fields, but preference will be given to work submitted by graduate students.

The Graduate Program in Critical Disability Studies at York University is accepting admission applications for both the MA and PhD programs.
