What it isYou study how to create video games from start to finish, learning programming, visual design, animation, sound, and storytelling. Unlike a pure computer science degree, this program balances technical skills with creative and business thinking, so you learn game engines, art, and how to actually launch a game. It suits people who want hands-on work making games rather than working only on backend code or studying game theory in isolation.This is a one-year English and design foundation program for international students whose English skills need strengthening before entering architecture or design studies. You take intensive English classes alongside introductory courses in architecture, landscape design, and visual design to build both language ability and design thinking. It suits international students who have strong potential but need to reach the English proficiency standard the university requires for direct entry into degree programs.You study the theory and practice of building software, designing systems, and solving problems with computers. Carleton's program lets you focus on specializations like artificial intelligence, games, or software engineering, and includes a co-op stream where you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. This suits students who want hands-on industry experience alongside their degree and are interested in both the technical and applied sides of computing.You study the fundamentals of running a business: accounting, finance, human resources, and strategy, along with emerging areas like artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship. This co-op program alternates classroom learning with paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want hands-on business skills and prefer learning by doing rather than pure theory.
