Honours Arts and Business is where the things students are passionate about intersect with business. Students can pick one of 29 majors — a subject they are curious about or something they have always loved — then layer on business classes that teach them the practical skills employers look for. 

Students who would like their degree to be even more customized, they can add on a second honours major or a minor. Students can choose the regular system of study and finish in four years, or add 20 months of serious work experience to their resumes through co-op. 

In a rapidly changing and increasingly globalized world, the insights of anthropology are more valuable than ever.

In Anthropology at the University of Waterloo, students will explore cultures past and present. Students can delve into the origins of human and primate evolution, use archaeology to learn more about earlier societies, or tackle contemporary issues such as violence and media.

The first-year introductory anthropology course exposes students to the breadth of this discipline. In upper years, students can focus their degree on the area of anthropology that interests them most: socio-cultural, archaeological, or biological (physical) anthropology.

Students will graduate to a wide range of career options, including market research, cultural resource management, forensic anthropology, and international development, with the added bonus of work experience for students who take the co-op stream.
