The joint-major Honours program in International Political Economy (IPE) is offered by the Department of Politics and is intended for students with an interest in the interconnected nature of the study of politics and economics at the international and global levels, which they wish to explore while pursuing a joint-major Honours option in another discipline program. The globalization of economic life has raised the prominence of the study of IPE in recent years among scholars and students from a wide variety of academic backgrounds who have merged the study of Politics with Economics and International Development Studies, as well as Anthropology, Business Administration, Canadian Studies, Environmental & Resource Science/Studies, Geography, History, Indigenous Studies, Sociology and Women's Studies.
