What it is	You study how human societies work and how people live together — sociology focuses on modern society and social structures, while anthropology looks at different cultures across time and place. Together they give you tools to understand why people behave the way they do, both in your own community and elsewhere in the world. This program suits people curious about human behaviour who want to explore it from multiple angles rather than pick just one approach.	Arts and Humanities programs at Western let you study literature, history, languages, creative work, and visual art — subjects focused on human culture and expression rather than science or business. You can pursue a general BA, combine business with arts, earn a specialized BFA in fine art, or complete a shorter certificate or diploma. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements related to your field. This suits people drawn to writing, analysis, visual creativity, or understanding how societies and cultures work.
