Indeed. To add to what @dfbdfb said, going from most liberal artsy to most restrictive/focused, it’d go like this:
American liberal arts majors (typically only 1/4 to 1/3 of 4 years in a major) -> American professional majors and many Canadian liberal arts majors (roughly 1/2 of 4 years in a major) -> Canadian professional and science majors and Scottish unis (roughly 3 of 4 years in a major) -> English-style unis (pretty much all of 3 or 4 years in a major, though you have electives and may be able to take some related courses) -> “Continental”-style unis (spend 3 or 4 years taking a rigid sequence of courses).
