This four-year combined degree integrates the study of conflict, human rights, security, and defence policy across social science and humanities perspectives.

It suits students interested in understanding international relations, peace-building, or policy work who want deeper expertise than a single undergraduate degree provides.

What this leads to
The picture for interdisciplinary studies as of 2026-08-17, not a description of this particular program.
Most graduates end up in human resources, marketing, project management, public relations, social services, healthcare administration, or research assistant roles. You'd likely start as a coordinator, junior analyst, or program officer in nonprofits, government agencies, or medium-sized companies.
In its favour
- Stable employment with 5% annual growth, and competitive entry salaries around $55,000
- Flexible for career changes—you can pivot into new sectors later without retraining
- Suits smaller organizations and nonprofits where people wear multiple hats
- Less specialized than engineering or nursing, so you're not locked into one field
Worth knowing
- Employers often don't know how to evaluate this degree—they prefer specific majors, so your resume needs stronger hustle
- No clear occupational niche: 37% of graduates end up in jobs that span multiple industries rather than one defined role
- Entry-level research assistant and content coordinator jobs—where most graduates start—are already being automated by AI
- Canadian employers show mixed acceptance of interdisciplinary graduates compared to other countries
How AI is changing this work
About 48% of roles suited to interdisciplinary graduates could be affected by AI in the next decade. The automation threat is real in research support and junior writing roles. What's not being automated yet is higher-level work: using AI to inform decisions about policy, ethics, business strategy, or organizational change. You'll need to quickly move beyond data-gathering and into roles where you're deciding what to do with AI outputs, or you'll be competing with a tool instead of a person.
