What it isYou study how people, societies, and cultures have changed over time, using primary sources like documents, artifacts, and written records. History at Windsor lets you focus on specific regions or periods — such as Classical civilizations, East Asia, or Celtic cultures — and you can combine it with another subject as a double major. This program suits people curious about why the world works the way it does and who want to develop research and critical thinking skills applicable across many careers.Arts and Humanities programs at Western let you study literature, history, languages, creative work, and visual art — subjects focused on human culture and expression rather than science or business. You can pursue a general BA, combine business with arts, earn a specialized BFA in fine art, or complete a shorter certificate or diploma. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements related to your field. This suits people drawn to writing, analysis, visual creativity, or understanding how societies and cultures work.You study a broad mix of human culture, history, and society through disciplines like anthropology, literature, drama, area studies, and food studies. Unlike a specialized honours program, this option lets you combine subjects freely and explore different fields before deciding on a focus. It suits students curious about people, ideas, and culture who want flexibility and the chance to gain work experience through co-op placements.
