What it isLinguistics is the study of how language works — its structure, sounds, grammar, and how people use it to communicate. This program lets you focus specifically on language science rather than learning to speak a particular language fluently. You can also choose a co-op option to gain work experience in fields like translation, education, or language technology alongside your studies, which suits students who want practical experience before graduation.You study how language works in real conversations and across different cultures, combining practical speech science with fluency in French or Spanish. Unlike a straight language degree, you learn the science behind how people communicate and understand each other across cultural boundaries. This suits people who want language skills tied to how humans actually use them, rather than pure translation or literature focus.Professional Translation is a program where you study how to translate texts, documents, and media between English and French at an advanced level. Unlike a general language degree, it focuses specifically on translation skills and techniques across different fields like business, law, media, and literature. It suits people who are fluent in both English and French and want to turn that skill into a career.You study the creative and business sides of art, film, design, and performance. This program combines hands-on work in fields like photography, animation, drama, and dance with classes in marketing and media studies, so you're not just making art — you're learning how to manage projects and reach audiences. It suits people who want careers in creative industries but also need to understand budgets, promotion, and how to run cultural organizations.
