What it is	This program combines the study of how people create, share, and interpret information across media and cultures. You'll choose from areas like creative writing, media studies, publishing, and information technology, rather than specializing in just one. The co-op option lets you work in communications or tech roles while you study, which suits people who want real-world experience alongside their degree and flexibility in choosing which communication field interests them most.	You study journalism — researching, writing, and editing news and stories for publication across different media — while also building skills in creative writing. This joint program with Centennial College combines theory at the university with hands-on training at the college, giving you both a bachelor's degree and a journalism diploma. It suits people who want practical newsroom experience alongside academic learning and who are ready for a structured two-institution pathway.	Creative Industries is an interdisciplinary program that brings together writing, design, journalism, and media studies so you can understand how creative work actually gets made and distributed in the real world. Rather than studying each of these fields separately, you learn how they connect and influence each other across publishing, advertising, broadcasting, and digital platforms. It suits people who want to work in media, publishing, or design but aren't sure yet which specific role fits them best.
