| What it is | You study how to read, analyze, and write about literature and media texts — novels, films, journalism, and digital content. This program combines the close reading skills of traditional English literature with practical training in writing and media production, so you're not just studying texts but learning to create them yourself. It suits people who want to explore how stories and ideas work across different forms and may want careers in publishing, communications, or creative fields. | Social Communication is an interdisciplinary program that teaches you how to craft and spread messages across different media and audiences. You study journalism, marketing, media analysis, and publicity techniques together rather than in separate streams, so you understand how these fields overlap in real-world communication work. It suits people who want to communicate for organizations, media outlets, or campaigns and prefer a broad foundation over specializing in just one area early on. |
