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.	A Bachelor of Arts is a three- or four-year undergraduate degree where you study subjects in the humanities, social sciences, or sciences — at Laurier Brantford, that means choices like English, anthropology, computer science, creative writing, or environmental studies. You can focus on one major or combine two. This program suits students who want broad knowledge across disciplines and enjoy writing, analysis, and critical thinking rather than hands-on lab or professional training.	An Honours BA in Arts lets you study humanities and social sciences subjects like English, anthropology, economics, drama, and creative writing over four years. You choose your own combination of courses rather than following a single fixed major, giving you flexibility to explore multiple disciplines. This program suits students curious about human culture, expression, and society who want broad knowledge across several fields before deciding on a specialization.
