Program details

Overview

Brock University's BA in General Humanities, offered through the Faculty of Humanities, allows students to pursue a flexible selection of courses drawn from across the university's faculties while still focusing coursework mainly within Humanities disciplines. Students apply to a Bachelor of Arts in Humanities and choose their major program after exploring courses in first year, with the option to include up to two minors within the degree. The structure suits students who want broad exposure before committing to a specific discipline rather than declaring a single major at entry. It is a four-year degree; the university notes that graduate outcomes vary widely depending on which courses and eventual major a student selects, reflecting the program's general, exploratory design rather than a fixed career track.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Expected admission average: mid 70s. Ontario Grade 12 requirement: English (ENG4U); one 4U course from history, philosophy, classical studies, or an international language is recommended. Applicants apply through OUAC code BHU; those not applying from an Ontario secondary school follow Brock's general admissions criteria for their applicant category.
