What it is	You study how language works in real conversations and across different cultures, combining practical speech science with fluency in French or Spanish. Unlike a straight language degree, you learn the science behind how people communicate and understand each other across cultural boundaries. This suits people who want language skills tied to how humans actually use them, rather than pure translation or literature focus.	You study one modern language in depth — French, Spanish and Latin American culture, or Italian — alongside English literature and related humanities. Each stream lets you focus on the language itself, its literature, and the history and culture of regions where it's spoken. This suits you if you want genuine fluency in a second language combined with understanding of its cultural context, rather than a broad survey of multiple languages.	This program combines the study of French language, literature, and culture with media and communication theory and practice. You'll analyze texts, develop writing skills in French, and learn how messages work across different platforms and audiences. It suits students who want to understand both French expression and how communication shapes society, and who value workplace experience through the integrated co-op option.
