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.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.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.
