BA/BS in Social Sciences

Brock University's Bachelor of Arts in Social Sciences, offered through the Faculty of Social Sciences, allows students to pursue a flexible course of study rather than a single or combined major. The program draws the majority of its credits from departments and centres within the Faculty of Social Sciences, with additional courses available across Brock's other faculties. Students enter without declaring a discipline and may apply to major in a subject of their choosing after completing Year 1, giving them time to explore before committing to a specialization. Career preparation varies with the specific combination of courses a student chooses, spanning fields connected to the social sciences more broadly. The degree is a four-year program based at Brock's Niagara Region campus in St. Catharines, Ontario, and is one of the university's broadest undergraduate entry points into the Faculty of Social Sciences.
