| What it is | This program lets you combine subjects from different disciplines — say biology with philosophy, or chemistry with history — rather than majoring in one field. The co-op requirement means you alternate between semesters of study and paid work terms with employers, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. It suits students who want flexibility in what they study and value real-world work experience before graduation. | This four-year combined degree integrates the study of conflict, human rights, security, and defence policy across social science and humanities perspectives. Unlike separate bachelor's and master's programs, you complete both degrees as one continuous stream, allowing you to move quickly from foundational concepts to advanced research and analysis. It suits students interested in understanding international relations, peace-building, or policy work who want deeper expertise than a single undergraduate degree provides. |
