What it is	This program teaches you how crime, the criminal justice system, and law enforcement actually work — combining theory about why crimes happen with practical study of policing, courts, and corrections. The co-op option lets you work in real criminal justice settings (police services, courts, or government agencies) alongside your classes, giving you direct experience instead of just classroom learning. It suits people curious about crime and justice who want hands-on exposure to the field before deciding on a specific career path.	This program lets you earn two degrees at once: a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice and a Bachelor of Education that qualifies you to teach high school. You study criminology, law, and education theory together rather than sequentially, finishing both degrees faster than if you did them separately. It suits people who want to teach secondary students and have a strong interest in law, crime, or justice topics.	You study how to manage sports facilities, recreation programs, and leisure services for communities and organizations. Unlike a general sports science program, this degree focuses on the business and administrative side — scheduling, budgeting, staffing, and customer experience — rather than personal fitness or athletic performance. The co-op work terms, built into the four-year degree, let you apply management skills in real sports and recreation settings while you study.
