What it isIn this program, you study French language and literature while completing teacher training at the same time, earning both an Arts degree and a teaching credential in four years. Unlike a regular Arts degree followed by a separate teacher's program, you integrate education courses throughout, so you graduate ready to teach French in Ontario schools. It suits students who know they want to teach French and want to combine academic depth in the language with practical classroom skills from the start.An Honours BA lets you specialize in one or more subjects from the humanities, sciences, and social sciences while building a broad education across different fields. You choose your major — such as English, Anthropology, Computer Science, or Creative Writing — and take courses in that area alongside electives that let you explore other disciplines. This program suits people who want depth in a subject they care about but also value exposure to different ways of thinking and fields of knowledge.An Honours BA in Arts lets you study humanities and social sciences subjects like English, anthropology, economics, drama, and creative writing over four years. You choose your own combination of courses rather than following a single fixed major, giving you flexibility to explore multiple disciplines. This program suits students curious about human culture, expression, and society who want broad knowledge across several fields before deciding on a specialization.
