What it isYou study how to design, build, and produce video games and interactive digital media. This program combines computer programming and game design with business and media skills, so you learn both the technical side and the creative direction needed to develop games professionally. It suits people who want to work in game studios or media companies and enjoy problem-solving through coding as much as visual storytelling.You 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.This program teaches you to manage technology projects and systems within business settings, combining business strategy with hands-on IT knowledge. Unlike a pure computer science degree, you focus on how organizations actually use and implement technology rather than deep coding or programming. The built-in co-op option lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real professional experience before you graduate — a fit for students who want practical experience early and a blend of business and tech rather than specializing in either alone.A Bachelor of Administration or Commerce teaches you core business skills like accounting, finance, management, and human resources, along with how organizations actually operate. The BComm adds a stronger focus on accounting and financial analysis compared to the BAdmin. Both programs include a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom and paid work at real companies, building experience while you study. This suits people who want practical business skills, like working with numbers or managing people, and who value learning on the job.
