What it is	Digital Futures is a design and fine arts program where you study visual storytelling through digital tools and media, combining animation, graphic design, coding, and art. Unlike traditional design or fine art streams, it's built around interdisciplinary collaboration and real-world projects that blend artistic creativity with digital technology and communication. It suits people who want to create visually, think critically about media, and work across both artistic and technical domains.	A BBA is a four-year business degree where you study core topics like accounting, finance, marketing, and human resources alongside economics and general business strategy. Unlike some business programs, this one includes co-op work terms, meaning you alternate between classroom learning and paid jobs at companies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. It suits students who want a broad business foundation with hands-on learning and don't yet know which specific business path they'll take.	You study business subjects like accounting, finance, and marketing alongside teacher training in a single four-year degree. Unlike a regular business degree, you earn two qualifications at once and complete a co-op work placement, giving you classroom teaching experience while finishing your studies. This suits people who want to become teachers but also want solid grounding in business skills or who are still deciding between those two career paths.
