What you study	Computer Science	Cinematics & Photography Computer Animation and Visual Effects Computer Games Design	Computer Science General or Integrated Engineering Information Technology
What it is	You study the theory and practice of computer programming, algorithms, data structures, and software development. This program lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real-world experience while you learn. It suits people who want hands-on industry experience alongside their degree and are comfortable juggling work and study schedules.	You study how to create video games from start to finish, learning programming, visual design, animation, sound, and storytelling. Unlike a pure computer science degree, this program balances technical skills with creative and business thinking, so you learn game engines, art, and how to actually launch a game. It suits people who want hands-on work making games rather than working only on backend code or studying game theory in isolation.	Informatique is a four-year computer science program taught in French. You study how to design, build, and troubleshoot software and systems, from programming languages to networks and databases. The co-op version lets you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real job experience alongside your degree; the regular version is full-time study only.
