What it is	You study how people communicate through media — TV, film, social media, journalism, advertising, and public relations. The program combines theory about how media shapes society with practical skills in creating and analyzing media content. It suits people interested in understanding media's role in the world and developing hands-on abilities in broadcasting, digital production, or communications work.	Industrial Design teaches you how to plan and shape physical products — from phones to furniture to medical devices — so they work well, look good, and can actually be made. You'll combine design thinking with engineering and manufacturing knowledge to understand both the creative and practical sides of bringing products to life. The co-op term lets you work in industry while you study, so you apply what you learn to real projects.	This program teaches you how to manage technology projects and systems within organizations. You study information technology combined with business and management skills, so you learn both how technology works and how to lead teams and make decisions around it. A mandatory co-op term means you'll work in a real IT management role during your degree, which suits people who want hands-on experience before graduating.	This is a two-year applied business program covering accounting, finance, management, and economics fundamentals. Unlike a four-year bachelor's degree, it gets you working faster with practical skills employers want immediately. It suits students who want hands-on business training without the length or theory-heavy focus of a university degree.
