| What you study | Sociology | Business StudiesCreative WritingEconomicsInterdisciplinary Studies |
| What it is | Sociology is the study of how people interact, form groups, and build societies — looking at things like families, workplaces, inequality, and culture. This co-op option lets you take paid work terms with organizations studying social issues, giving you real-world experience alongside your classes. It suits people curious about why society works the way it does and who want to test that interest in actual jobs before deciding on a career path. | You study how people communicate through digital platforms, traditional media, and written content, combining journalism, creative writing, and media analysis with business and economics foundations. Unlike a pure journalism program, this combines multiple communication disciplines and requires hands-on digital media production alongside theory. It suits people who want to work in digital marketing, publishing, broadcasting, or content creation and value gaining real workplace experience during their degree. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
