What it is	Physics is the study of how matter and energy behave — from tiny atoms to huge stars. At Brock, you'll combine classroom learning with paid work terms in labs, companies, or research facilities, giving you real-world experience alongside your degree. This program suits students who want hands-on skills and industry connections before graduating.	You study how power, politics, and social systems shape gender and women's experiences, combining feminist theory with political analysis. Unlike a straight political science program, you examine how gender operates across institutions, law, and society rather than treating it as a side topic. This suits you if you're interested in social justice, policy work, or understanding how political systems affect different groups.	A four-year program that examines gender roles, power dynamics, and women's experiences across history, culture, and society using theories from sociology, social work, and other disciplines. Unlike a straight sociology degree, this program centres feminist analysis as its core lens and often includes applied work placements through co-op. It suits students interested in understanding social inequality, policy, or community work through a gender-focused framework.
