| What it is | You study law and criminology together over four years, combining legal theory with the study of crime and the criminal justice system. This paired degree gives you breadth across both fields rather than specializing in law alone. It suits students curious about how law and crime intersect, who want options beyond traditional legal practice. | This program lets you earn both a law degree and a business degree by studying at Trent University in Ontario and Swansea University in Wales. You'll take courses in business management, finance, and law together rather than as separate programs, so you graduate with credentials in both fields. It suits students who want to understand how law and business intersect — useful for corporate law, business regulation, or running a company within legal boundaries. | Actuarial Science is the study of risk and uncertainty using mathematics, statistics, and business analysis to help insurance companies, pension funds, and other organizations make financial decisions. Unlike a pure mathematics degree, this program focuses on applied problem-solving for real-world financial scenarios. The co-op option lets you work in the field while studying, giving you practical experience alongside your coursework. This program suits people who enjoy mathematics and statistics, think logically about complex problems, and want a career with strong technical foundations and professional prospects. |
