| What it is | You study literature, language, and writing in English and other languages. The co-op option lets you alternate semesters of class with paid work terms at cultural organizations, media companies, or educational institutions, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want deep knowledge of how language and stories work and who value hands-on experience in fields like publishing, communications, or teaching. | 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. |
