The Center for Canadian Studies was founded in 1997 in collaboration with the Embassy of Canada in Sweden and the ICSS (International Council for Canadian Studies). The Canadian Institute organized various conferences on Canadian studies (researchers and authors from Canada). The agreement with the embassy ended in 2009 and the Department of French, Italian and Classical Languages ​​became part of the Romance and Classical Department.
