University Medal for Outstanding Graduate Work – Master’s Level

Cristina Wood

Cristina Wood standing in front of a planter of flowersUnder the supervision of Professors Joanna Dean and Shawn Graham, Cristina Woods is interested in how particular spaces change through time. As the 2018-2019 Garth Wilson Fellow in Public History, MA student Cristina Wood created a data-informed story about the Ottawa River using song.

Wood arrived at Carleton from an undergraduate degree in History and Environmental Studies at Queen’s University, where she mostly focused on intellectual and cultural history. But she began to deepen her interest in environmental history in the first year of her Master’s in Public History here at Carleton.  Through her research and reading, it became clear to Wood how deeply these two areas of historical study overlap.  Between the first and second years of her MA, Wood had the opportunity to work as a research intern at the Canada Science and Technology Museum and Canada Agriculture and Food Museum.

More details on her research and other accomplishments can be found on her profile page.
