First Year Options
Students are able to enter directly into the Faculty of Social Sciences. The following options are available to students:
1. Enter Social Sciences directly but do not declare a Major.
2. Enter Social Sciences directly and declare one of the majors that the Faculty offers (Anthropology, Archaeology, Economics, Geography, History, Linguistics, Linguistics and Language, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, or Urban Studies).
3. Enter Social Sciences directly and declare one of the Collaborative or Interdisciplinary degrees offered (Latin American Studies, International Indigenous Studies, International Relations, or East Asian Studies).
In the Faculty of Social Sciences we believe students should be exposed to a range of academic disciplines throughout their program. All Social Sciences students, regardless of whether they have declared a Major, are therefore encouraged to complete three courses (one and one-half full course equivalents) from different disciplines in the Faculty of Social Sciences. Students are strongly advised to declare a major as a first year student in the Faculty of Social Sciences. Failure to declare a major by the completion of five full-course equivalents may compromise their ability to complete their degree program in a timely fashion. By the time they have completed 10 full-course equivalents, students must choose a Major.
