What it is	You study how money, markets, and resources work in society, learning to analyze economic data and understand policy decisions that affect people's lives. You can focus on general economics, combine it with political science, or specialize in resource and environmental economics if you have stronger math and science preparation. This suits people curious about why economies function as they do and who want practical skills in financial analysis or policy work.	You earn a Bachelor of Arts degree while simultaneously training to become a high school teacher. You study an academic subject like English, history, or mathematics alongside education courses that teach you how to teach those subjects to teenagers. Unlike a regular BA followed by a separate teacher education program, you complete both degrees at the same time in four years, so you enter the classroom faster and with integrated training.	An Honours Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences in depth, choosing from subjects like history, English, anthropology, environmental studies, and others. Unlike a general arts degree, an honours program requires more advanced courses in your chosen major and typically demands higher academic performance. This program suits students who want to explore ideas across cultures, societies, and texts, and who are willing to commit to deeper study in at least one subject area.
