What it is	Philosophy is the study of fundamental questions about knowledge, reality, ethics, and how to live well, using logic and reasoned argument rather than experiment or observation. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, giving you practical experience alongside your studies. It suits people who enjoy abstract thinking and debate, and want to explore ideas deeply before deciding on a specialized career path.	A BA General with an Area of Concentration lets you study one subject in depth — say English Studies or Economics — while taking electives across other humanities and social sciences. Unlike a specialized honours program, this approach gives you flexibility to explore multiple fields without committing fully to a single discipline. It suits students who have a clear interest in one area but want room to discover related subjects and keep career options open.
