Trinity College offers Trinity One, a set of first-year courses, and four inter-disciplinary programs: Ethics, Society, and Law;
Immunology; Independent Studies; and International Relations. The Major Program in Ethics, Society, and Law assembles
courses offered largely by the Departments of History, Philosophy, Political Science, Religion, Sociology, and by Woodsworth
College. The Specialist Program in Immunology is assembled from offerings by the Departments of Biochemistry, Immunology,
Microbiology, and Molecular Genetics and Molecular Biology. The International Relations Program encompasses courses
offered by the Departments of History, Political Science, and Economics.
Trinity One
Trinity One provides first-year students with the opportunity to explore together significant issues and ideas pertaining to the
conduct of human life and world affairs. There are two streams in Trinity One, each linked to a prominent aspect of the
College's intellectual identity. One of the streams focuses on international relations, the other on ethics. Each stream includes
two seminar courses limited to 25 students. These courses foster small-group discussion and emphasize the development of
critical thinking skills, oral presentation skills, writing skills, and research skills. Cocurricular events, drawing upon the rich
resources of the Munk Centre for International Studies at Trinity College, enable students in both streams of Trinity One to hear
guest speakers and to engage in informal conversation with one another and with their professors.

Independent Studies
Consult Professor C. Kanaganayakam, Room 305, Larkin Building, Trinity College (416-978-8250).
The College's Independent Studies Program affords students the opportunity of investigating in depth topics of their own
choice that are not directly part of the present curriculum. These topics normally involve interdisciplinary study, though under
some circumstances they may require concentrated work in a single discipline. The scope of acceptable topics embraces the
natural and social sciences as well as the humanities. Participation in the program is restricted to students who have
completed at least ten courses. The maximum number of independent studies half courses for which a student may receive
credit is one, and the maximum number of independent studies full course equivalents for which a student may receive credit is
two. Normally the work done is to be the equivalent of two full courses. Permission to register in an independent studies half
course, or in an independent studies full course, will normally be granted only to students with a cumulative GPA of at least
3.50. Permission to undertake an independent studies project for the equivalent of two full courses will normally be granted
only to students with a cumulative GPA of at least 3.70.
All proposals are subject to the approval of the Coordinator.
Students must submit to the Coordinator before the beginning of the academic year a copy of their academic transcript and an
outline of their topic (signed by the supervisor) and a suggested bibliography. For evaluation of the work done in the program a
short thesis or equivalent is required, prepared and submitted by the last day of classes in the fall or winter session as
appropriate. The supervisor and a second reader (nominated by the supervisor and approved by the Coordinator before the
end of September) are responsible for the evaluation. The Coordinator will require regular progress reports throughout the
year.
Either the supervisor or the second reader must be a tenured University of Toronto faculty member. A supervisor who is not a
tenured University of Toronto faculty member will normally be required to be a full-time faculty member of the University.
Students enrolling for the first time register for one or more of TRN300H1, TRN301Y1, TRN302Y1, or for one or more of TRN400H1,
TRN404Y1, and TRN405Y1, as appropriate. Those enrolling for a second time register in one or more of TRN400H1, TRN404Y1, and
TRN405Y1, as appropriate.
