What it isYou study literature, writing, and language through close reading of texts and writing of your own essays and creative work. The co-op option lets you work terms in publishing, media, education, or communications between your school terms, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want to understand how language and stories work and who value learning through both classroom study and paid work in an English-related field.You study a broad mix of human culture, history, and society through disciplines like anthropology, literature, drama, area studies, and food studies. Unlike a specialized honours program, this option lets you combine subjects freely and explore different fields before deciding on a focus. It suits students curious about people, ideas, and culture who want flexibility and the chance to gain work experience through co-op placements.An Honours Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences in depth, choosing from subjects like history, English, anthropology, environmental studies, and others. Unlike a general arts degree, an honours program requires more advanced courses in your chosen major and typically demands higher academic performance. This program suits students who want to explore ideas across cultures, societies, and texts, and who are willing to commit to deeper study in at least one subject area.
