| What it is | You study how to help people and communities solve social problems — poverty, family conflict, mental health, abuse — through practical counselling, advocacy, and resource connection. This degree trains you specifically for the profession of social work, meaning you learn both theory and hands-on skills, with placement experience in real agencies. It suits people who want to work directly with vulnerable people and aren't looking for a research-focused or policy-only path. | 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. |
