What it is	Criminology is the study of why people commit crimes, how the criminal justice system responds, and what drives criminal behaviour. Unlike a law degree, you won't train to become a lawyer; instead, you'll examine crime through sociology, psychology, and policy perspectives. This program suits students interested in understanding crime and justice systems rather than practising law itself.	Professional Translation is a program where you study how to translate texts, documents, and media between English and French at an advanced level. Unlike a general language degree, it focuses specifically on translation skills and techniques across different fields like business, law, media, and literature. It suits people who are fluent in both English and French and want to turn that skill into a career.	Humanities I is your first year of study in the liberal arts, where you explore human culture, language, history, and society through subjects like English, history, drama, and linguistics. You take a range of courses across these fields to discover what interests you before specializing in a particular discipline in later years. This suits students who are curious about how people think, communicate, and organize themselves, but aren't yet certain which humanities subject to focus on.
