What it is	Economics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make decisions about money, resources, and trade. You'll learn theories and tools to analyze why markets work the way they do, from individual spending habits to national policies. This program suits people curious about how the world's financial systems operate and who like working with data and logic to solve real-world problems.	Social Work teaches you how to help people and communities facing challenges like poverty, abuse, mental health issues, and inequality. A direct-entry program means you start in social work courses from year one, rather than taking general studies first. Co-op lets you alternate between classes and paid work at social agencies, hospitals, or nonprofits, so you graduate with real experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want hands-on learning, are drawn to supporting vulnerable people, and prefer to test their career choice in the field while studying.	You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems.
