What it is	You study how education works — teaching methods, learning science, school systems, and the social side of how people learn — rather than training to teach in a classroom. This program includes co-op work terms where you gain real experience in schools and education settings alongside your coursework. It suits students curious about education as a field of study who want hands-on experience before deciding whether to pursue teaching, educational leadership, or other education-related careers.	Educational Studies is the academic study of how education systems work, how people learn, and the social and historical forces that shape schools and teaching. It differs from teacher training programs because it focuses on understanding education as a field of study rather than preparing you directly for classroom teaching. This program suits students who are curious about education policy, inequality in schools, curriculum design, or want to explore education-related careers before deciding whether teaching itself is the right path.	You study French language, literature, and culture in depth, learning how to read, write, and think critically about French-speaking texts and ideas. The iBA option means you spend a year abroad in a French-speaking country, giving you immersion in the language and culture alongside your coursework. This program suits students who love French and want genuine fluency and cultural knowledge, whether or not they're already a strong French speaker at entry.
