| What it is | This program teaches you how to design, build, and manage computer systems and software that businesses use to solve real problems. Unlike a Computer Science degree, which focuses more on programming theory and algorithms, Information Technology emphasizes the practical application side — how to choose the right tools, set up networks, and support users. The co-op option lets you earn money and gain workplace experience while you study, which suits people who want to see their learning in action before graduation. | You study how conflicts arise between groups and nations, and how human rights law and institutions work to prevent or resolve them. In your final years, you shift focus to security policy, military strategy, and defence issues at national and international levels. This combined degree suits people interested in diplomacy, international organizations, law, or government policy work who want exposure to both the rights and security sides of global politics. |
