What it isPolitical Science is the study of how governments work, why people hold different political beliefs, and how societies make decisions about laws and power. This program lets you combine politics with related areas like international development, criminology, philosophy, or regional studies depending on your interests. It suits students curious about current events, policy-making, and understanding conflict and social change who want practical work experience alongside classroom learning.International Studies is a degree where you combine courses from fields like economics, history, business, and development to understand global issues and how different countries interact. The iBA option includes a mandatory year abroad at a partner university, immersing you in another culture while continuing your studies, whereas the regular BA keeps you on campus. It suits students who want broader perspectives on world problems rather than specializing in a single discipline, and who are curious about how global systems actually work.This program lets you earn two degrees at once: a business administration credential covering accounting, finance, and entrepreneurship, plus an international studies degree in history, geography, or environmental studies. Unlike a typical business degree, you're required to complete a co-op work term, which gives you practical experience alongside classroom learning. It suits students who want both solid business training and deeper knowledge of global issues or a second subject area.
