| What it is | This program combines study of how technology shapes society with analysis of social issues and human values. Unlike a pure technology program, you'll focus on the human and ethical sides of tech — how it affects people, policy, and communities — rather than building or coding technology itself. It suits people curious about technology's role in the world who prefer thinking through social and policy questions over hands-on technical work. | You study human behaviour, relationships, and social systems from childhood through adulthood, drawing on sociology, psychology, and policy analysis. This program is broader than social work alone because it covers family dynamics, community development, and social change rather than focusing only on professional counselling or casework. It suits people interested in understanding how families and societies work and who want careers in social services, policy, research, or international development. | Global Health is a science degree that combines the study of health systems, data analysis, and policy with real-world development work across different countries. You learn how health issues connect to poverty, education, and government decisions, and you use technology to solve health problems in low-resource settings. Co-op work terms let you gain international experience while studying, making this a good fit if you want to work on health challenges beyond Canada. |
