What it isCriminology is the study of crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system that responds to it. You'll examine why people commit crimes, how laws are enforced, and the social and psychological factors behind criminal activity. This program suits people interested in understanding crime from an academic angle rather than pursuing law or direct policing careers.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 Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences — literature, history, languages, creative writing, drama, economics, or anthropology — with flexibility to combine subjects. The co-op option alternates your studies with paid work terms in related fields, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want a liberal arts education but also want to test out careers and build a professional network while studying.
