What it isYou study the creative and technical craft of making films, from cinematography and camera work to storytelling and visual composition. Unlike a broader media studies program, Image Arts focuses on hands-on production skills and the visual language of cinema rather than theory alone. This suits students who want to create films themselves and are comfortable learning through doing.You study how films and media are made, analyzed, and used in society. This program combines film history and criticism with hands-on creative work in video, photography, and digital media, rather than focusing only on theory or only on production. It suits people who want to understand both the artistic and technical sides of filmmaking and are drawn to creative storytelling across different media formats.You study how organizations communicate with the public through traditional media, social platforms, and strategic messaging. This program emphasizes practical skills in digital content creation and reputation management alongside theory. Co-op is optional, letting you work terms at communications firms or in-house media departments alongside your coursework. This suits people who want to blend writing, digital strategy, and audience analysis rather than pursue journalism alone.Professional Translation is a program where you study how to translate texts, documents, and media between English and French at an advanced level. Unlike a general language degree, it focuses specifically on translation skills and techniques across different fields like business, law, media, and literature. It suits people who are fluent in both English and French and want to turn that skill into a career.
