What it isYou study how organizations communicate with the public through traditional media, social platforms, and strategic messaging. This program emphasizes practical skills in digital content creation and reputation management alongside theory. Co-op is optional, letting you work terms at communications firms or in-house media departments alongside your coursework. This suits people who want to blend writing, digital strategy, and audience analysis rather than pursue journalism alone.You study how digital media and games work as storytelling and communication tools, combining the technical and creative sides of game design with the study of how media shapes culture and meaning. This program emphasizes both making and analyzing — you learn to create interactive work while understanding the theory behind it, rather than focusing only on coding or only on critique. It suits people who want to explore how games and digital media tell stories and influence audiences, and who are comfortable working across both artistic and analytical thinking.This program teaches you how to create digital content across animation, game design, and visual media. Unlike a pure computer science degree, it balances technical skills with creative and design thinking. It suits people who want to build things that people see and interact with, rather than work mainly on backend systems or theory.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.
