| 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. | This program combines the study of how young people develop and behave with the study of how society works and institutions function. You'll examine topics like family dynamics, education systems, social inequality, and policy that affects children and youth, drawing on psychology and social work perspectives. It suits students who want to understand people and social structures in depth before moving into careers like social work, education, counselling, or community development. |
