Bachelor Of Arts

The Bachelor of Arts (BA) at MacEwan University emphasizes both breadth and depth of study and has been designed for flexibility and customization. You can declare a primary major and a minor, or a primary major and a secondary major, or a primary major and two minors. Primary major Your major allows you to study a subject in great depth. It can lead you towards your career or to graduate studies in a specific area. We encourage you to explore several subject areas before you decide on your major. Secondary major or minor You explore a second subject in greater depth as a requirement of your degree. You have the option to complete a secondary major, a minor or two minors. Options Options allow you to customize your degree even further as you explore subjects that reflect your interests and career plans. Plan ahead so you have prerequisites for courses you want to take. You can choose your options from any of the disciplines offered by the Faculty of Arts and Science. You may include a limited number of courses from other faculties if you are not already taking an out-of-faculty minor. HONOURS Honours disciplines in the Bachelor of Arts provide you with the opportunity to pursue more intensive study in your chosen field; an Honours designation is particularly beneficial if you are considering graduate studies.
