What you study	English Studies	Business Studies Design Management Studies Marketing	Accounting Business Studies Finance Human Resource Management
What it is	You study literature, writing, and language through close reading of texts and writing of your own essays and creative work. The co-op option lets you work terms in publishing, media, education, or communications between your school terms, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits people who want to understand how language and stories work and who value learning through both classroom study and paid work in an English-related field.	Graphic Communications Management teaches you to manage the creative and business sides of visual design projects. You study design principles alongside marketing, business strategy, and media production so you can lead teams that create everything from branding to advertising campaigns. It suits people who want to combine artistic thinking with management responsibility, rather than focusing only on design or only on business.	You study business fundamentals — accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management — at two Lakehead campuses in Ontario and complete mandatory work terms alongside your courses. This structure differs from a standard business degree by splitting your education between Thunder Bay and Orillia and requiring you to alternate semesters of study with paid work experience. It suits students who want practical industry exposure while earning a degree and are comfortable moving between campuses.
