Think a degree is all you’re getting at Laurier? Think again. Once you've picked a major (or two), you can add an option or minor, apply for a paid co-op opportunity, or get involved in research alongside faculty – there are so many ways to customize your education.

Maybe you’ve already got the next four years mapped out. Or maybe you're still exploring programs, courses and career paths. Either way, we're here to help you design a degree experience that’s just right for you.
