What it is	You study how power, politics, and social systems shape gender and women's experiences, combining feminist theory with political analysis. Unlike a straight political science program, you examine how gender operates across institutions, law, and society rather than treating it as a side topic. This suits you if you're interested in social justice, policy work, or understanding how political systems affect different groups.	Social Sciences is the study of how people, societies, and economies work. You choose from nine subject areas including anthropology, economics, history, law, geography, politics, and sociology, and can combine them however you want rather than following one fixed path. This program suits students curious about human behaviour, institutions, and the world around them who want flexibility to explore multiple disciplines before specializing.	You study how cities and regions develop, grow, and change, combining geography, planning, politics, and social policy to understand urban and rural environments. This program emphasizes the interconnected nature of these topics rather than treating them as separate disciplines. Co-op work terms are available, letting you gain practical experience in planning offices, government agencies, or development organizations alongside your coursework.
