What you study	Media and Communication Studies	Human Resource ManagementPoliticsSocial Policy	Education StudiesPoliticsSocial Policy
What it is	You study how media works — television, film, social media, news, advertising — and how people communicate through it. The international version lets you spend time studying abroad, and you can choose a co-op stream to do paid work placements with media companies alongside your courses. This program suits students curious about how messages spread, media influence society, and who want hands-on experience in the industry before graduating.	Labour Studies examines how work, employment, and workers' rights function in society through the lenses of politics, human resources, and social policy. Unlike a general business degree, it focuses on labour relations, workplace justice, and policy rather than management techniques alone. This program suits people interested in union work, employment law, labour advocacy, or human resources roles where understanding worker perspectives matters.	You study political science and education together in one four-year degree, earning both a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Education at the same time. This means you take courses in politics and social policy alongside education theory and teaching methods, preparing you to teach social studies or civics while deepening your understanding of political systems. It suits people who want to enter teaching but also want strong grounding in a subject area beyond just pedagogy.
