Hahaha oh thanks, I answer questions on the course because I really love it but I can understand how it is rather radically and therefore a bit confusing for the outsider.
The classes are great (well for me anyway), but the opinion isn't uniform as since many of the core modules are quite different from what you would get in a conventional top-class degree. Don't apply for this course if you want to study a normal degree, this degree wants to make you think differently and challenges you to be interdisciplinary. The teachers running the classes are all really passionate, this is one thing that has surprised me about this course in that all of the main core teachers are really enthusiastic and good lecturers. So to summarize great teachers, unconventional core classes which I believe are very good and valuable for the future, but may not appeal to everyone so research beforehand!
As for what I want to do in the future. I applied with interest in energy and science policy so want to explore that avenue. Also considering the Civil Service, Consultancy and anything diplomacy-related. This course gives you all the skills you will need to apply for a white-collar job, more so than any other degree out there. Some you may not believe me but think about it:
1. You do tons of group projects (I am already on my 2nd group project in the first year) so develops team skills.
2. Interdisciplinary across multiple fields which means you tick more boxes when it comes to skills and disciplines
3. Available from top-university
4. Compulsory language module
5. Quantitative and Research Methods courses which are vital in any industry (especially professional services)
6. Year abroad option, meaning you have studied and lived in a culture different to your own
7. Not tied down to one discipline. This may seem similar to interdisciplinary but being able to have skills across multiple disciplines is important and shows you are adaptable. No job now days focuses on one discipline, most people have to become interdisciplinary after their degree, BASc does it whilst your doing it.
