What it is	A Philosophy BA means you study fundamental questions about knowledge, reality, ethics, and how to think clearly. You learn to analyze arguments, examine assumptions, and develop your own reasoned positions on big ideas. The co-op option lets you apply these skills in workplace settings — workplaces value clear thinking and analysis — while the international version includes time abroad and global perspectives.	Professional Translation is a program where you study how to translate texts, documents, and media between English and French at an advanced level. Unlike a general language degree, it focuses specifically on translation skills and techniques across different fields like business, law, media, and literature. It suits people who are fluent in both English and French and want to turn that skill into a career.	This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus.
