What it is	This is a combined undergraduate and law degree program that lets you study a humanities or social science subject alongside a professional law degree. Unlike a standard BA followed by separate law school, you complete both degrees together in an integrated path, earning a BA/LLB. It suits students who want a broader educational foundation in fields like English, archaeology, or communication studies while training to become a lawyer, rather than focusing only on law from the start.	You study forensic science alongside humanities subjects like history, English, or anthropology. This combined degree lets you apply investigative techniques and scientific analysis to human remains and artifacts, rather than pursuing forensics alone. It suits students who want to understand both the technical and cultural sides of uncovering the past.	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.
