What it is	You study the causes of crime, how the criminal justice system works, and the policies governments use to address crime and social issues. This honours program includes a mandatory co-op placement, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms in law enforcement, courts, policy offices, or related organizations. It suits people interested in understanding crime prevention and criminal law from a policy angle, especially those who want practical workplace experience alongside their degree.	This program teaches you how to design, build, and manage computer systems and software that businesses use to solve real problems. Unlike a Computer Science degree, which focuses more on programming theory and algorithms, Information Technology emphasizes the practical application side — how to choose the right tools, set up networks, and support users. The co-op option lets you earn money and gain workplace experience while you study, which suits people who want to see their learning in action before graduation.
