Joint Honours in Criminology and Feminist and Gender Studies

This bachelor's degree offers three pathway options. You can choose to remain in the course stream option or, during the fall term of your 3rd year, you can apply to the field placement option or the research focus option.

Adjustments to the recommended course sequences might be required based on course scheduling or if you have been admitted with advanced standing.
