What it is	Political Science is the study of government, law, political systems, and how power works in society. You'll examine Canadian and international politics, political theory, and institutions from multiple angles. This four-year program suits people who want a broad foundation in politics before deciding whether to specialize in law, policy, international relations, or public administration.	You study a subject like economics, anthropology, or Chinese alongside teacher training, so you earn both a Bachelor of Education and a Bachelor's degree in your chosen field. Unlike a regular education degree, this concurrent program embeds your subject expertise from day one rather than adding it separately. It suits people who know they want to teach and have a clear subject they're passionate about.	You study ancient Greek and Roman civilization — languages, texts, archaeology, and history — alongside practical business skills like management, accounting, and organizational strategy. Unlike a straight classics program, this combines humanities depth with vocational training, preparing you for careers that value both specialized knowledge and professional competence. It suits students who want genuine expertise in antiquity but also need marketable business credentials.
