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.	This program combines the study of how conflicts arise and persist with the investigation of human rights law and advocacy. You examine political systems, international relations, and social policy through coursework in both conflict resolution and rights protection. It suits students interested in diplomacy, international organizations, law, or social justice work who want practical workplace experience alongside their degree.	You enter this program without committing to a specific major, taking first-year courses across subjects like English, history, psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This gives you time to explore different areas of arts study before declaring a focus at the end of year one, rather than applying directly to a named program. It suits students who are interested in humanities and social sciences but unsure which direction fits them best.
