What it is	You study the past through written records, archaeology, and analysis of how societies developed over time. History at Lakehead includes options in Classical Studies, letting you focus on ancient Greece and Rome if that interests you. This program suits people curious about why the world works the way it does and comfortable writing essays and working with primary sources.	An Honours Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences — literature, history, languages, creative writing, drama, economics, or anthropology — with flexibility to combine subjects. The co-op option alternates your studies with paid work terms in related fields, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want a liberal arts education but also want to test out careers and build a professional network while studying.
