Notes

  1. 4000 level optional courses in public administration (PAP) and political science (POL) are limited to students in the 4th year of the program of studies.
  2. If enrolled in an Honours degree, students must add a second study module to this program. It can be a second major or a minor, and can be a discipline offered by another faculty. The course units of the second study module will replace the same number of elective course units. Go to Make changes to your undergraduate program for more information.
