About Dual Degree - Bachelor of Arts - Social Welfare and Social Development & Bachelor of Commerce (PAB)
Students may register in a Bachelor of Commerce with a Bachelor of Arts in Social Welfare and Social Development degree simultaneously.
The Bachelor of Commerce will prepare students for a career and life in general. It gives a wholesome approach to learning that gives students more than a degree. Along with core business knowledge, they will develop professional and social skills. The program’s combination of theoretical background, practical skills, real experience, and techniques to hone independent thinking and problem solving skills will give graduates an advantage and a better chance of success in a competitive market.

The Social Welfare and Social Development program is unique in Canada in both name and content. It focuses on social inequality and the groups that have been underrepresented in the distribution of resources, opportunities, and power. Students graduate with a thorough understanding of the causes and consequences of inequality in global, national, and local contexts, and an ability to formulate options for addressing these disparities.
Required courses examine the social, political, and historical contexts of poverty and the forms of oppression that give rise to social marginalization. Students also become familiar with the numerous struggles to make societies more equitable, while achieving social justice.
In SWLF 2995, a full-year seminar, students will volunteer at an agency that provides social and/or health services in the North Bay community. This is a great opportunity for students to obtain meaningful, real-world experience.
