International Bachelor of Arts – Memorial University of Newfoundland (St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador)
The international Bachelor of Arts (iBA) is designed to prepare students for a future as global citizens. The iBA program has been developed for those who are interested in the study of global dynamics and worldwide issues from the perspective of the Humanities and Social Sciences. The program’s objectives are to provide knowledge and analytical skills essential for research and work on cultural, economic, political, religious and social processes on a global scale.
The iBA differs from the existing Bachelor of Arts (BA) in that it requires additional designated international studies courses and language study courses, although both the iBA and BA require completion of 120 credit hours. Students are also required to reside outside of Canada for a period of time during the program by either (1) participating in a Memorial field school or studying at a non-Canadian institution or (2) participating in an international work placement outside of Canada.
Memorial University of Newfoundland also recently launched new programs in Ocean Sciences and Engineering.
