| 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. | Chamber music is the study and performance of classical music written for small groups of instruments, typically three to eight players. You learn ensemble skills, musical interpretation, and the repertoire that defines this genre, going deeper into collaborative performance than a general music degree would. This suits musicians who want to develop as both soloists and team players in intimate musical settings. | 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. | International Studies is a degree where you combine courses from fields like economics, history, business, and development to understand global issues and how different countries interact. The iBA option includes a mandatory year abroad at a partner university, immersing you in another culture while continuing your studies, whereas the regular BA keeps you on campus. It suits students who want broader perspectives on world problems rather than specializing in a single discipline, and who are curious about how global systems actually work. |
