What it isA four-year Bachelor of Arts in History means you study the past — events, people, societies, and how they shaped the world — through reading primary sources, analyzing interpretations, and writing essays. Unlike a shorter history diploma or certificate, this degree gives you time to specialize in particular periods or regions and develop research skills expected in graduate study or professional work. It suits people who enjoy reading, debate, and asking "why did things happen this way?"A general arts or science degree lets you study a broad range of subjects in your first year or two, then choose a major from fields like anthropology, chemistry, biology, business, or astronomy. Unlike a specialized program, you're not locked into one subject from the start, so you can explore and decide what interests you most. This suits students who want flexibility, aren't sure what they want to study, or like the idea of combining subjects across different disciplines.You study both business and science together as a combined honours degree, taking courses in fields like accounting, chemistry, computer science, or biology alongside business and economics. This differs from a straight business program because you develop scientific literacy and research skills, not just business knowledge. It suits people who want to understand how science and data work in real-world business contexts, or who haven't decided between these two interests yet.
