What you study	Computer Science General or Integrated Engineering Information Systems Software Engineering	Cinematics & Photography Computer Animation and Visual Effects Computer Games Design
What it is	You study how to design and build software and computing systems that solve real engineering problems. This program combines computer science with broader engineering principles, so you learn both coding and how systems fit into larger projects. You complete paid work terms alongside your studies, giving you industry experience before you graduate. It suits people who want hands-on engineering work, not just pure programming.	You study how to create video games from start to finish, learning programming, visual design, animation, sound, and storytelling. Unlike a pure computer science degree, this program balances technical skills with creative and business thinking, so you learn game engines, art, and how to actually launch a game. It suits people who want hands-on work making games rather than working only on backend code or studying game theory in isolation.
