What it isYou study the principles and systems behind how economies work, from personal finance and business decisions to national and global trade. This three-year degree covers economic theory and real-world applications, giving you a broader education than a specialized business program. It suits people curious about how markets, governments, and money shape society, and who want flexibility to move into business, policy, law, or further study afterward.A BA Honours at Guelph lets you specialize in one of nine humanities and social science subjects — from English to Economics to Fine Art — while completing a standard four-year degree. The co-op option integrates paid work terms into your studies, letting you gain professional experience in your field alongside classroom learning. This suits students who want depth in a particular subject and prefer learning through both study and real-world application.A BA General with an Area of Concentration lets you study one subject in depth — say English Studies or Economics — while taking electives across other humanities and social sciences. Unlike a specialized honours program, this approach gives you flexibility to explore multiple fields without committing fully to a single discipline. It suits students who have a clear interest in one area but want room to discover related subjects and keep career options open.
