What it is	You study how physical activity, sport, and exercise affect human health and performance, plus how to design and manage recreation and wellness programs. Unlike a pure exercise science program, this degree balances the science side with practical skills in running fitness facilities, community programs, and leisure services. It suits people who want to combine their interest in fitness and health with careers in coaching, program management, or public health promotion.	Social Sciences I is a first-year entry point where you explore human behaviour, society, and social systems through subjects like economics, sociology, anthropology, politics, and social work. Unlike a specialized program, you sample multiple disciplines before declaring a focus, letting you discover which area — from international development to health policy — matches your interests. It suits students curious about how societies work and drawn to understanding people and social issues from different angles.	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.	Political Science is the study of how governments work, why people hold different political beliefs, and how societies make decisions about laws and power. This program lets you combine politics with related areas like international development, criminology, philosophy, or regional studies depending on your interests. It suits students curious about current events, policy-making, and understanding conflict and social change who want practical work experience alongside classroom learning.
