What it is	A History BA teaches you how to research, analyze, and interpret past events and societies using primary sources and historical methods. The iBA (International Bachelor of Arts) option lets you study history while spending part of your degree abroad, gaining international experience alongside your coursework. Co-op is available, meaning you can complete paid work terms with employers in museums, archives, heritage organizations, or education sectors during your degree. This program suits students curious about how societies change over time and interested in developing research and critical thinking skills applicable beyond academia.	Art History is the study of paintings, sculpture, architecture, and other visual works from different cultures and time periods, along with understanding the historical contexts that shaped them. Unlike studio art programs, you focus on analysis and interpretation rather than creating art yourself. This program suits students who want to understand how art reflects society and are comfortable writing essays and doing research.	Canadian Studies is the academic examination of Canada's history, culture, and social development across different time periods and regions. You explore how Canada formed as a nation, how Indigenous peoples and immigrants shaped it, and how it relates to broader North American contexts. This program suits students interested in understanding Canada's past and present through historical and cultural analysis rather than pursuing a specialized professional credential.
