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.	Communications at Glendon teaches you how media, visual culture, and marketing work in practice and in theory. You study cinematography and photography alongside media analysis and strategic communication, rather than pure theory or business skills alone. It suits people who want to understand how messages reach audiences across platforms and are willing to study in both English and French.	Film Studies teaches you how to analyze movies, television, and visual media critically, plus how to create your own films and photographs. You'll study both the technical and artistic sides of filmmaking, from cinematography to storytelling. This program suits people who want to understand how media shapes culture and who are interested in working behind or in front of the camera.	You study how organizations and individuals use digital platforms and media to communicate with audiences, drawing from business strategy, creative writing, design, law, and sociology. Unlike a straight marketing or media studies program, this one explicitly connects social media tactics to broader social impact and strategic business goals. It suits people who want to understand both the creative and analytical sides of digital communication, and who benefit from hands-on co-op work experience.
