Arts and Business Regular

The Arts and Business Regular program combines a strong grounding in the humanities, social sciences, fine and performing arts, and languages with a set of required business-related courses.

In addition to the courses you select as part of your Honours Arts major, you'll complete courses in economics, accounting, computer science, ethics, communication, statistics, and business writing.

As a traditional student, you'll study in the fall and winter terms and have your summers off to pursue possible career-related employment, entrepreneurial endeavors, or life-broadening experiences.  We encourage you to consider an academic or cultural exchange to help you expand your academic and personal experience at Waterloo -- with 49 exchange programs in 20 different countries there is a lot of opportunity to make global connections.

In addition to your required honours Arts major, and Business courses, you can choose from one of the many minors, options, specializations, or interdisciplinary programs available in Arts, or in one of the other five faculties at the University of Waterloo to fully customize your degree.  You may also consider one of the Arts and Business specializations available to you.
