Bachelor of Arts - Centre for Global Studies - Globalization Studies (Blended Delivery)

How Blended Learning Works

Upon completion of the 1st year of study online students will then join their cohort on campus for their 2nd, 3rd and 4th years of study and meet the in person requirements for Canada’s Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP). A valid study permit is required only for on-campus 2nd – 4th years of study, for which a provincial attestation letter (PAL) will be issued by Huron.

Program Description

Globalization Studies modules engage students in critical analysis of the dominant forces of globalization—mobility, integration and change—from the vantage point of human life. In the core courses in the Globalization Studies streams, students learn to distinguish prevailing theories about how globalization works, learn about the social, environmental and political entailments of capitalism, and consider alternative social, political and economic formations. Supplementary courses explore the emergence of resistance movements, localized alternatives to globalization, the impacts of mass production and consumption, the place of community in a globalized world, and more.
