What it is	You study both human geography — how people organize societies, economies, and cultures across regions — and physical geography, which covers landforms, climate systems, and natural environments. This program includes a co-op option, meaning you can complete paid work terms with employers in government, nonprofits, or environmental organizations alongside your coursework. It suits students interested in understanding global issues from multiple angles, whether through social, economic, or environmental lenses.	A Bachelor of Arts is a four-year degree where you study humanities and social sciences — subjects like English, history, psychology, anthropology, or environmental studies. You choose a major (or sometimes two) and take courses across different disciplines to build broad knowledge alongside deep expertise in your chosen area. This program suits students curious about understanding human culture, society, language, and ideas, who want flexibility to explore different fields before specializing.
