What it isYou study human behaviour, thinking, and mental health through research, theory, and practical observation. This honours program includes a co-op option, meaning you alternate between classroom semesters and work terms at organizations like clinics, research labs, or social agencies, giving you real experience alongside your degree. It suits people curious about why people act and think as they do, who want hands-on workplace experience before deciding on a psychology career path.Communication, Media and Film covers how people create and share messages through different formats: journalism, photography, film, drama, and digital media. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms in media organizations, giving you real industry experience alongside your degree. It suits people who want to understand storytelling and media from multiple angles while building a practical portfolio.You'll study how to plan, shoot, and produce films and videos from start to finish. This program goes deeper into the technical and creative sides of filmmaking than a general media studies degree would, with hands-on work in cinematography, lighting, editing, and storytelling. It suits people who want to work as directors, cinematographers, or producers rather than study media theory or work in broader communications roles.
