What it is	Public Health is the study of how to prevent disease and improve health across whole communities and populations, not just individual patients. This program includes a work-study option where you alternate between semesters of classroom learning and paid work terms at hospitals, government health agencies, or non-profits, giving you real experience in the field. It suits people interested in disease prevention, health policy, and community wellness who want both classroom knowledge and practical workplace experience before graduating.	This program teaches you how media and communication work across multiple platforms — from journalism and photography to marketing and design. You'll study both the theory behind how messages reach audiences and the practical skills to create them yourself. It suits people who want to understand media industries from the inside and are ready to work across different formats rather than specializing in just one.	Social Communication is an interdisciplinary program that teaches you how to craft and spread messages across different media and audiences. You study journalism, marketing, media analysis, and publicity techniques together rather than in separate streams, so you understand how these fields overlap in real-world communication work. It suits people who want to communicate for organizations, media outlets, or campaigns and prefer a broad foundation over specializing in just one area early on.
