| What it is | This program combines business studies with social sciences — covering how companies interact with society, economics, politics, and culture. Unlike a straight business degree, you study sociology, communication, literature, and politics alongside core business courses to understand the human and social side of organizations. It suits students interested in business who also want to explore ethics, culture, and how society shapes markets. | Therapeutic Recreation is a program that teaches you how to use activities, games, arts, and outdoor experiences to help people improve their physical health, mental wellbeing, and quality of life. You'll learn both the theory of how recreation heals and the practical skills to run programs in hospitals, community centres, and care facilities. This program suits people who want to work in healthcare or social services but prefer a hands-on, activity-based approach rather than clinical or medical training. | 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. |
