What it is	You study how crime happens, how the criminal justice system works, and policing practices in Canada. This online program lets you learn from home while exploring both the causes of crime and the practical side of law enforcement, rather than focusing only on theory or only on police operations. It suits people interested in criminal justice careers or further study who need flexibility to learn remotely.	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 politics and social policy with a focus on global issues and international systems. You'll examine how governments, policies, and social movements interact across borders, rather than focusing on one country alone. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms with organizations in Canada or abroad, giving you real-world experience alongside your coursework. It suits people interested in international affairs, diplomacy, development work, or policy analysis who want to test their skills in actual jobs before graduating.
