What it isYou study political science and law together in one combined program, learning how governments work and how legal systems function side by side. Unlike a regular law degree, this program includes substantial coursework in political theory, institutions, and policy, giving you a broader foundation in how power and justice operate in society. It suits people drawn to both legal practice and political understanding who want to explore connections between law and governance before committing to law school alone.You study both political science and law together in a single six-year program, rather than pursuing them separately. Political science teaches you how governments, institutions, and policies actually work; law gives you the training needed to become a lawyer, including courtroom procedures and legal reasoning. This combined stream suits people who want to understand politics deeply and work as lawyers in government, policy, or public interest law.You study business fundamentals — how organizations work, manage money, make decisions — with a focus on global markets and cross-border trade. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside theory. This suits people who want hands-on learning and international exposure while building a professional network before graduation.You study business and law together over six years instead of doing them separately. The combined degree lets you take courses in both fields and finish with credentials in commerce and law, rather than choosing one path. It suits people who want to understand both how businesses operate and how legal systems regulate them, and who are considering careers that bridge business strategy, corporate law, or compliance.
