This Bachelor of Arts in Political Studies examines the systems and institutions that shape political life and how people work within and against them to bring about change, covering topics such as who holds power, how decisions are made, and what alternatives exist. Coursework draws on history, media, sociology, and ethics to analyze political institutions and connect classroom learning to current events and social movements. All students complete a work-integrated learning placement, gaining experience in areas such as advocacy, policy work, or electoral politics; CMU graduates are also noted as preferred candidates for the Manitoba Legislative Internship Program. Classes emphasize discussion and debate on history, identity, and institutions. The four-year degree is delivered at Canadian Mennonite University's campus in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and prepares graduates for further study or careers in government, advocacy, law, and public policy.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission is assessed against the standards of the applicant's home province. Manitoba applicants need an average of no less than 70% across English 40S (minimum 60%), a Grade 12-level mathematics course, and one further academic 40S/G/U course, plus two additional academic courses at that level; other provinces are held to comparable but distinct benchmarks, such as an average of 60% or higher across five Grade 12 academic courses with English 30-1 at a minimum 60% for Alberta, the Northwest Territories, and Nunavut, or a 70% overall average with no course below 60% and English at a minimum 65% for British Columbia, Yukon, and Ontario. Applicants can be granted conditional admission on a current transcript listing courses still in progress, with final official transcripts due, sent directly from the school or through MyCreds, once the year of study is complete. The application deadline for Fall entry is August 25.
