What it is	Anthropology is the study of human cultures, societies, and how people live around the world — both now and in the past. You'll examine everything from language and belief systems to how communities organize themselves and adapt to their environments. This program suits people curious about why humans behave differently across societies and who want to understand cultural diversity on a deeper level.	This program teaches you how human societies work by studying cultures, languages, and how people live across different times and places. The international option (iBA) includes a semester or year abroad, letting you do fieldwork or study in another country. Co-op is available, meaning you can do paid work terms related to anthropology alongside your degree, which helps you test careers in museum work, development, research, or cultural organizations.	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.
