King’s offers three interdisciplinary programmes that allow you to engage more deeply with the questions that arise from FYP: History of Science and Technology, Early Modern Studies or Contemporary Studies. Combine study in these areas with a discipline-based program through Dalhousie to achieve a variety of perspectives tailored to your academic interests.

You can also take a minor in each honours programme to complement your degree.
