Bachelor of Arts - General Major Humanities (Optional Co-op)

A general major in the humanities, unlike a single discipline major, allows students to customize their course selection to their interests and abilities. Where they compromise depth of focus in one area, they gain breadth of knowledge in a few key areas, thus increasing their flexibility. This multidisciplinary approach provides access to the "big picture" or the wider context of any subject area. Conversely, the courses students choose can enhance their focus and provide a cross-discipline perspective on one particular theme.

Students choosing a general major in the humanities select three disciplinary streams from the following:

Students participating in a general major degree program are not limited to studying only within their three streams. As part of the liberal education, they will be required to take classes outside of their major(s). This allows graduates to develop skills and experience in all three streams.
