What it isYou study electrical engineering with a focus on making power systems more environmentally friendly, learning how to design and manage electricity generation, distribution, and use with sustainability in mind. Unlike a standard electrical engineering program, this one emphasizes renewable energy sources and reducing environmental impact from the start. It suits students who want to solve real engineering problems while caring about climate and ecological concerns.Arts and Humanities programs at Western let you study literature, history, languages, creative work, and visual art — subjects focused on human culture and expression rather than science or business. You can pursue a general BA, combine business with arts, earn a specialized BFA in fine art, or complete a shorter certificate or diploma. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements related to your field. This suits people drawn to writing, analysis, visual creativity, or understanding how societies and cultures work.A BA Honours at Guelph lets you specialize in one of nine humanities and social science subjects — from English to Economics to Fine Art — while completing a standard four-year degree. The co-op option integrates paid work terms into your studies, letting you gain professional experience in your field alongside classroom learning. This suits students who want depth in a particular subject and prefer learning through both study and real-world application.
