| What it is | Economics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make choices about money, resources, and trade. This program includes a co-op component, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at organizations, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. It suits students who want to understand how economies work and prefer learning through a mix of theory and hands-on practice. | This program combines the study of how gender and power shape society with political analysis and policy-making. You'll examine feminist theory, women's history, and social movements alongside government systems, elections, and law. The co-op component means you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms in relevant organizations, giving you real-world experience in activism, government, or non-profits while you study. | You study philosophy, politics, and current social issues together rather than in separate programs. This interdisciplinary approach lets you examine ethical problems — like inequality, justice, and policy — from multiple angles at once. It suits people who want to think deeply about society's problems and aren't sure whether philosophy, political science, or social studies fits them best. |
