What it isThis four-year degree teaches you law and criminology through a liberal arts lens rather than training you to become a lawyer. You study legal systems, criminal justice, court processes, and social issues connected to crime and punishment, but you do not complete the professional courses required for law school or law practice. It suits people interested in how laws work and why crime happens, who want a broad university education rather than a narrow pathway to a specific legal profession.A Bachelor of Arts is a three-year undergraduate degree where you study humanities and social sciences rather than sciences or professional fields. You choose a major from subjects like English, history, philosophy, or geography, and take electives across the range offered. It suits students who want broad knowledge in how people, societies, and ideas work, without committing to a specific career path at the start.Arts One is a broad first-year program that lets you explore multiple humanities and social science subjects — including anthropology, history, English, economics, and geography — before deciding on a major. Unlike applying directly to a single program, this approach gives you time to sample different disciplines and find the right fit before committing. It suits students who are curious about ideas and society but aren't yet certain which direction they want to specialize in.
