Description:

The only one of its kind in Canada, this program goes far beyond basic anatomical knowledge and sexual health. Use different perspectives to explore relationships, communication, parenting skills, how media affects our understanding of gender/sex/relationships, the impact of culture on sexual values, and more, all from a social justice perspective. Meanwhile, the program itself has a real family vibe. You’ll enjoy small classes and a tight-knit community at St. Jerome’s University, one of Waterloo's on-campus University Colleges. With your degree, you can choose from a slew of high-impact career paths, including teaching, counselling, social services, community engagement, and more.



Apply to Honours Arts and Business and choose Sexuality, Marriage and Family Studies as your major at the end of first year. By alternating school terms and paid co-op work terms throughout your degree, you can explore new career areas and types of employers as your career interests evolve. Co-op is available if you study Sexuality, Marriage and Family Studies through Honours Arts and Business.
