What it isYou study how governments work, political systems, and social policies that affect people's lives. The co-op requirement means you'll spend alternating school and work terms at organizations involved in politics, policy, or public affairs, giving you real-world experience alongside your coursework. This suits people who want to understand politics deeply and test whether a career in government, advocacy, or policy work fits them.This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus.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.
