What it is	This program combines studio art, architectural design, and materials science to explore how buildings and spaces are created and experienced. You'll study drawing, design principles, and the physical properties of construction materials alongside art history and theory. It suits students who want to work creatively with built environments — whether designing buildings, creating installations, or working in architectural practice — rather than pursuing fine art or architecture alone.	Therapeutic Recreation is a program that teaches you how to use activities, games, arts, and outdoor experiences to help people improve their physical health, mental wellbeing, and quality of life. You'll learn both the theory of how recreation heals and the practical skills to run programs in hospitals, community centres, and care facilities. This program suits people who want to work in healthcare or social services but prefer a hands-on, activity-based approach rather than clinical or medical training.	You study the creative and technical side of designing buildings and spaces, learning to sketch ideas, understand how structures work, and use design software. This program includes mandatory work terms where you apply classroom learning to real projects with architecture and design firms. It suits people who enjoy solving visual problems, thinking in three dimensions, and want hands-on experience before committing to a full architecture degree.
