| What it is | English at Windsor combines the study of literature, creative writing, and comparative texts across cultures and time periods. You'll analyze existing works and develop your own writing skills rather than focusing purely on how language works. The co-op option lets you intern at publishing houses, media companies, or writing organizations while you study, which suits students who want real workplace experience alongside their degree. | Humanities I is your first year of study in the liberal arts, where you explore human culture, language, history, and society through subjects like English, history, drama, and linguistics. You take a range of courses across these fields to discover what interests you before specializing in a particular discipline in later years. This suits students who are curious about how people think, communicate, and organize themselves, but aren't yet certain which humanities subject to focus on. | 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. |
