What it isEnglish at Windsor combines the study of literature, creative writing, and comparative texts across cultures and time periods. You'll analyze existing works and develop your own writing skills rather than focusing purely on how language works. The co-op option lets you intern at publishing houses, media companies, or writing organizations while you study, which suits students who want real workplace experience alongside their degree.You study how films, photographs, and media messages are made and understood, combining hands-on work in cinematography and design with analysis of how communication shapes culture. This program blends technical skills — camera work, editing, visual design — with critical thinking about media's role in society. It suits people who want to create visual work and understand the stories media tells.Professional Translation is a program where you study how to translate texts, documents, and media between English and French at an advanced level. Unlike a general language degree, it focuses specifically on translation skills and techniques across different fields like business, law, media, and literature. It suits people who are fluent in both English and French and want to turn that skill into a career.
