| What it is | 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. | This program teaches you how media and communication work across multiple platforms — from journalism and photography to marketing and design. You'll study both the theory behind how messages reach audiences and the practical skills to create them yourself. It suits people who want to understand media industries from the inside and are ready to work across different formats rather than specializing in just one. | 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. |
