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.	This program teaches you how to design clothing and accessories, market fashion products, and communicate fashion ideas through media. Unlike a pure design program, it combines creative skills with business and communication strategy, so you learn both how to make fashion and how to sell it. It suits people who want to work in design, branding, styling, or fashion media rather than just one of those areas.	Professional Translation is a program where you study how to translate texts, documents, and media between English and French at an advanced level. Unlike a general language degree, it focuses specifically on translation skills and techniques across different fields like business, law, media, and literature. It suits people who are fluent in both English and French and want to turn that skill into a career.	This program lets you design your own degree by combining courses from multiple fields — anthropology, chemistry, English, history, philosophy, law, media studies, and others — rather than following a single major. You choose which subjects to focus on and how much depth in each, creating a customized path that suits your interests. It works well if you're curious about several areas and want flexibility to explore across disciplines before committing to one specialization.
