| What it is | This four-year combined degree integrates the study of conflict, human rights, security, and defence policy across social science and humanities perspectives. Unlike separate bachelor's and master's programs, you complete both degrees as one continuous stream, allowing you to move quickly from foundational concepts to advanced research and analysis. It suits students interested in understanding international relations, peace-building, or policy work who want deeper expertise than a single undergraduate degree provides. | This program teaches you how to design, build, and manage computer systems and software that businesses use to solve real problems. Unlike a Computer Science degree, which focuses more on programming theory and algorithms, Information Technology emphasizes the practical application side — how to choose the right tools, set up networks, and support users. The co-op option lets you earn money and gain workplace experience while you study, which suits people who want to see their learning in action before graduation. |
