What it is	Anthropology is the study of human societies, cultures, and how people live across different times and places. You'll examine everything from family structures and belief systems to archaeology and language. This science-focused version emphasizes research methods and data analysis rather than pure humanities or field studies, suiting students who want rigorous training in how anthropologists actually investigate human behaviour.	This program combines the study of how societies work — through anthropology, politics, and social policy — with practical skills in starting and running social enterprises that solve community problems. Unlike a straight business degree, it focuses specifically on ventures designed for social impact rather than profit alone. It suits people who want to understand social change deeply and turn ideas into real projects that help communities.	This program combines the study of how gender and power shape society with political analysis and policy-making. You'll examine feminist theory, women's history, and social movements alongside government systems, elections, and law. The co-op component means you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms in relevant organizations, giving you real-world experience in activism, government, or non-profits while you study.	You enter this program without committing to a specific major, taking first-year courses across subjects like English, history, psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This gives you time to explore different areas of arts study before declaring a focus at the end of year one, rather than applying directly to a named program. It suits students who are interested in humanities and social sciences but unsure which direction fits them best.
