What you studyAnthropologyArchaeologyClassical Greek StudiesClassical Studies
What it isPhilosophy is the study of fundamental questions about knowledge, reality, ethics, and how we think and argue. You'll read classic and modern texts, learn to analyze arguments carefully, and develop your own position on big questions. It suits people who enjoy abstract thinking, debate, and aren't looking for a vocational credential but rather want to sharpen their reasoning and understand different worldviews.An Honours Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences — literature, history, languages, creative writing, drama, economics, or anthropology — with flexibility to combine subjects. The co-op option alternates your studies with paid work terms in related fields, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want a liberal arts education but also want to test out careers and build a professional network while studying.
