What it is	A Psychology BA is a three-year program where you study how people think, behave, and develop across their lifespan. You'll take courses in areas like cognitive psychology, social psychology, and research methods, learning both theory and how to conduct psychological research. The co-op option lets you alternate between semesters of study and paid work placements in psychology-related settings, which suits students who want practical experience alongside classroom learning.	A BA General with an Area of Concentration lets you study one subject in depth — say English Studies or Economics — while taking electives across other humanities and social sciences. Unlike a specialized honours program, this approach gives you flexibility to explore multiple fields without committing fully to a single discipline. It suits students who have a clear interest in one area but want room to discover related subjects and keep career options open.	An Honours BA in Arts lets you study humanities and social sciences subjects like English, anthropology, economics, drama, and creative writing over four years. You choose your own combination of courses rather than following a single fixed major, giving you flexibility to explore multiple disciplines. This program suits students curious about human culture, expression, and society who want broad knowledge across several fields before deciding on a specialization.
