What it isYou study how digital media and games work as storytelling and communication tools, combining the technical and creative sides of game design with the study of how media shapes culture and meaning. This program emphasizes both making and analyzing — you learn to create interactive work while understanding the theory behind it, rather than focusing only on coding or only on critique. It suits people who want to explore how games and digital media tell stories and influence audiences, and who are comfortable working across both artistic and analytical thinking.Social Sciences is the study of how people, societies, and economies work. You choose from nine subject areas including anthropology, economics, history, law, geography, politics, and sociology, and can combine them however you want rather than following one fixed path. This program suits students curious about human behaviour, institutions, and the world around them who want flexibility to explore multiple disciplines before specializing.You enter this program without committing to a specific major, taking first-year courses across subjects like English, history, psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This gives you time to explore different areas of arts study before declaring a focus at the end of year one, rather than applying directly to a named program. It suits students who are interested in humanities and social sciences but unsure which direction fits them best.
