What it is	You study how human activity shapes the natural world and how landscapes, climate, and ecosystems affect people and cities. The program offers multiple routes depending on your interests: a general arts degree, a combined arts and sciences track, an engineering focus for environmental systems, or a specialized environmental studies degree. It suits students curious about climate change, resource management, urban planning, or environmental policy who want both scientific and human perspectives.	A Bachelor of Arts is a four-year degree where you study humanities and social sciences — subjects like English, history, psychology, anthropology, or environmental studies. You choose a major (or sometimes two) and take courses across different disciplines to build broad knowledge alongside deep expertise in your chosen area. This program suits students curious about understanding human culture, society, language, and ideas, who want flexibility to explore different fields before specializing.	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.	A Bachelor of Arts is a three- or four-year undergraduate degree where you study subjects in the humanities, social sciences, or sciences — at Laurier Brantford, that means choices like English, anthropology, computer science, creative writing, or environmental studies. You can focus on one major or combine two. This program suits students who want broad knowledge across disciplines and enjoy writing, analysis, and critical thinking rather than hands-on lab or professional training.
