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.Political Science at Glendon is the study of government, power, policy-making, and how societies are organized and governed. You examine these topics through focused lenses like politics in specific regions (Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East), international development, law and criminology, or social policy. The iBA option adds a mandatory year abroad and deeper integration of language study, making it suited to students who want to engage with politics globally and become fluent in French.You study how societies develop, interact across borders, and address global challenges like poverty and inequality. This program combines politics, economics, and social policy rather than focusing on just one discipline. The co-op option lets you work with international organizations or NGOs between school terms, giving you practical experience alongside your coursework. It suits people curious about global issues who want to understand systems and institutions, not just volunteer or travel.
