What it is	Media Studies teaches you how to analyze, create, and understand media — including film, television, news, social media, and advertising — and how media shapes society and culture. You'll study both the theory behind media and hands-on production skills. This program suits people who are curious about how communication works in the modern world and want to understand or work in creative and media industries.	This program teaches you to manage technology projects and systems within business settings, combining business strategy with hands-on IT knowledge. Unlike a pure computer science degree, you focus on how organizations actually use and implement technology rather than deep coding or programming. The built-in co-op option lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real professional experience before you graduate — a fit for students who want practical experience early and a blend of business and tech rather than specializing in either alone.	A Bachelor of Business Administration is a four-year degree where you study core business concepts like accounting, finance, and marketing, then specialize in areas like human resources or entrepreneurship. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience at a company. It suits students who want practical business skills and real-world workplace exposure alongside theory.
