| What it is | You study how to run and launch businesses while learning environmental science and sustainability principles. This combines business skills with ecological knowledge, so you understand both profit and environmental impact. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms, giving you real workplace experience in green business and sustainability roles. It suits people who want to work in business but care about environmental problems. | This program combines computer science, design, and visual storytelling to teach you how to create digital content like animated films, video games, and interactive media. Unlike a pure computer science degree, it balances technical coding skills with creative design and artistic principles. It suits people who want to build things on screen and understand both the programming and visual art sides of digital production. | You earn two degrees at once: a Bachelor of Business Administration or Commerce focused on sports management, and a Bachelor of Education that qualifies you to teach. This concurrent program means you study business courses in sports organizations alongside education coursework and practice teaching, all in four years instead of five or six. It suits people who want to teach physical education or work in sports administration and prefer completing both qualifications together. |
