What it isYou 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.An Honours BA lets you specialize in one or more subjects from the humanities, sciences, and social sciences while building a broad education across different fields. You choose your major — such as English, Anthropology, Computer Science, or Creative Writing — and take courses in that area alongside electives that let you explore other disciplines. This program suits people who want depth in a subject they care about but also value exposure to different ways of thinking and fields of knowledge.
