| What it is | You study how media works, how messages spread, and how communication shapes society and politics. This program combines theory with hands-on practice, and includes a mandatory work term where you apply classroom learning in real media or communications settings. It suits people interested in journalism, public relations, social media strategy, or understanding how news and information influence the world around them. | You study the engineering behind systems that transmit voice, data, and video across networks and through the air. This combines hands-on design and math with practical knowledge of how communication technologies actually work in the real world. The program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you gain industry experience alongside your classes. It suits people who want to build things but are drawn to how information moves rather than, say, power systems or structures. |
