What it is	You study sociology — how people, groups, and societies work — but with a focus on solving real problems rather than just theory. You'll learn to analyze social issues like inequality, crime, and community development, then apply that knowledge to actual situations through projects and research. This suits people who want to understand human behaviour and social change while building practical skills for work in non-profit organizations, government, or social services.	You study human societies and cultures, both past and present, through fieldwork, artifacts, and observation. This program includes mandatory work terms where you apply classroom learning in real jobs related to anthropology or social science. It suits people curious about how different cultures work and who want practical experience alongside theory.	Anthropology is the study of human societies, cultures, and origins across time and geography. A BSc in Anthropology emphasizes scientific methods and often includes physical or biological anthropology alongside cultural study. This program suits students curious about why people behave as they do and willing to learn research techniques to answer real questions about human variation and society.	Anthropology is the study of human cultures, societies, and how people live around the world — both now and in the past. You'll examine everything from language and belief systems to how communities organize themselves and adapt to their environments. This program suits people curious about why humans behave differently across societies and who want to understand cultural diversity on a deeper level.
