What it is	This program teaches you how to design and plan buildings, landscapes, and outdoor spaces, and understand the history and theory behind architecture. It differs from pure design programs because it emphasizes both the creative and technical sides of how buildings and environments are shaped. It suits students who want to study architecture as a discipline before applying to a professional architecture school, or who are drawn to design thinking and the built environment.	You study arts subjects alongside business fundamentals in a joint-major degree. This combines the breadth of humanities and social sciences with business skills like finance, management, and organizational thinking, rather than letting you focus on just one. It suits people who want a flexible foundation for careers that blend analytical and communication skills across diverse fields.	Queen's Arts offers a broad, self-directed undergraduate degree spanning humanities, social sciences, and languages. You choose your own combination of subjects — from English and economics to classical studies and environmental issues — rather than following a set curriculum. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements in your field of interest, which suits students who want real-world experience alongside their degree and flexibility in how they structure their time.	This program lets you earn a Bachelor of Arts in one of ten humanities or social science subjects, then move directly into a Master of Business Administration without reapplying. The co-op component means you alternate between study and paid work terms in business settings throughout both degrees. It suits people who want deep knowledge in a humanities field but also need business skills and real workplace experience before graduation.
