The Margaret MacMillan Trinity One Program
BIG Ideas .... Small Classes
The Margaret MacMillan Trinity One program at Trinity College in the University of Toronto provides first-year students with the opportunity to explore major issues and ideas pertaining to human life and world affairs.
- Trinity One has an International Relations stream, an Ethics stream and a Public Policy stream. Students enrol in one of these three streams.
- Each stream consists of two seminar courses and a co-requisite course. (These courses would be among the five courses typically taken by a first-year Faculty of Arts & Science student.)
- The seminar courses are limited to 25 students. They foster small-group discussion and emphasize the development of critical-thinking, oral-presentation, writing and research skills.
- Trinity One includes co-curricular events drawing upon the rich resources of the Munk School of Global Affairs at Trinity College in the University of Toronto, and the University of Toronto's Centre for Ethics (located at Trinity), and the University of Toronto School of Public Policy and Governance. These events enable students in all Trinity One streams to hear guest speakers and to engage in informal conversation with one another and with their professors.
- Eligible students: All full-time students entering their first year of study in the Faculty of Arts & Science at the University of Toronto, regardless of their college affiliation, are eligible for admission to Trinity One by way of an on-line application. The program currently has a limited enrolment of 100 students - 25 in Ethics, 25 in Public Policy and 50 in International Relations. The International Relations stream has two sections of 25 students each.
