What it is	Geography is the study of Earth's physical systems — landforms, climate, water — and how humans interact with their environment and each other across space. You'll combine field research, data analysis using mapping technology, and social analysis to understand everything from urban development to environmental change. This program includes a co-op work term, giving you paid workplace experience alongside your studies.	A combined degree that lets you study both arts and commerce side by side, rather than picking one. You take courses in subjects like history, English, or environmental studies alongside business, accounting, and management courses. This dual approach suits students who want business skills and professional preparation but also value deeper knowledge in humanities or social sciences.	A Bachelor of Arts is a three-year undergraduate degree where you study humanities and social sciences rather than sciences or professional fields. You choose a major from subjects like English, history, philosophy, or geography, and take electives across the range offered. It suits students who want broad knowledge in how people, societies, and ideas work, without committing to a specific career path at the start.
