What it is	You study a mix of subjects across arts and sciences rather than specializing in one discipline. This program lets you combine courses from different fields — for example, pairing physics with philosophy, or chemistry with history — to build a degree that fits your interests. It suits students who are curious across multiple areas and want flexibility to explore before committing to a single major.	You study how organizations and individuals use digital platforms and media to communicate with audiences, drawing from business strategy, creative writing, design, law, and sociology. Unlike a straight marketing or media studies program, this one explicitly connects social media tactics to broader social impact and strategic business goals. It suits people who want to understand both the creative and analytical sides of digital communication, and who benefit from hands-on co-op work experience.
