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.	Physical & Environmental Sciences is a degree where you study the natural world through disciplines like physics, chemistry, geology, astronomy, and environmental science. You choose which areas to focus on based on your interests. The co-op option lets you alternate study with paid work terms in science-related workplaces, giving you real experience alongside your classes. This program suits students who want to understand how Earth and space work and prefer hands-on learning combined with classroom study.
