| 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. | You study how societies should be organized and governed, combining philosophy, law, politics, and social policy to explore questions about justice, rights, and ethical decision-making. Unlike a straight philosophy or political science program, this one deliberately weaves together multiple disciplines to help you see how abstract moral principles connect to real laws and policies. It suits people who want to think deeply about how the world should work and aren't content with single-subject answers. | You study philosophy, politics, and current social issues together rather than in separate programs. This interdisciplinary approach lets you examine ethical problems — like inequality, justice, and policy — from multiple angles at once. It suits people who want to think deeply about society's problems and aren't sure whether philosophy, political science, or social studies fits them best. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
