What it is	You study how organizations communicate with audiences through writing, media, and strategic messaging, blending business fundamentals with communication theory and practice. This program includes mandatory work terms alongside your classes, so you alternate between campus and paid jobs in communications roles. It suits people who want to work in corporate communications, marketing, public relations, or media while gaining real workplace experience.	You study business and organizations through both management and sociology lenses, examining how companies operate in society and affect people. This program blends traditional business topics like accounting and strategy with the social sciences, so you explore not just profits but also ethics, inequality, and community impact. It suits students interested in business who also want to understand the human and social dimensions of commerce, and the optional co-op lets you test this approach through paid work terms.	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.
