Program description

The B.A. in Human Relations and Spirituality – the only one of its kind in Ontario – is built on two major disciplines: human sciences, especially the study of human behaviour, and spirituality. It explores such topics as social justice, human development, acceptance of diversity, inclusivity and humanism.

During your studies, you will develop greater effectiveness in interpersonal communication and a greater understanding of human development, with its different cultural and spiritual traditions. You will learn to describe and compare key concepts and theories in the human and social sciences, along with the main qualitative and quantitative methodologies used in the field, while being able to explain how spirituality can be part of the human development process.

With this degree, you will better grasp the breadth and complexity of the human person and the experience of having a good relationship with yourself, with others, with the world around you, and with the transcendent.

Who should apply?

This program is ideal for all those who want to better understand the complexity of the human spirit.
