Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Global Justice (EO)

The influence of politics on our lives is inescapable. The policies and principles which governments endorse and follow shape our everyday lives. The study of Political Science provides students with a chance to examine our lives in this context.

Political Science explores how communities make collective decisions. Students can study ideas, activities and problems associated with the governance of nations, states and societies – both past and present. Students will learn about the impact of globalization, the making of American foreign policy, the role of the courts in politics, political development in the Muslim world and the multi-level governance of Canadian cities.

In this program, students can choose to focus on Canadian politics, political theory, public policy, comparative politics, international relations, and local government. A Political Science degree offers a complex set of skills. Research, analysis, critical-thinking, writing, problem-solving, and public-speaking skills figure highly in these courses.
