Major Concentrations

Faculty of Arts

Faculty of Arts

The Arts major concentrations available to B.A. & Sc. students are listed here and are described in detail under the Faculty of Arts section of this publication. Since the B.A. & Sc. degree requires a certain number of credits in the Arts and in the Sciences, there are special requirements for B.A. & Sc. students. To be counted as an Arts major concentration, the program must include at least 30 credits of Arts courses. Similarly, to be counted as a Science major concentration, the program must include at least 30 credits of Science courses.

For example, a student completing the 36-credit African Studies Major concentration in Arts must complete at least 30 of those credits in Arts courses and at most 6 credits in Science courses.
