Law touches virtual every aspect of society. That makes a degree in Legal Studies great preparation for a career in government, business, the non-profit sector, law enforcement, and (of course!) law itself. At Waterloo, you’ll enjoy small classes led by highly respected researchers, giving you lots of opportunity for discussion. Over the course of your degree, you’ll explore the origins of legal systems, discover how the Charter of Rights and Freedoms creates change, and tackle issues from criminal profiling to the evolution of family law to sentencing and restorative justice.
