What it is	Creative Technologies is a visual arts and design degree that combines fine art, graphic design, and digital media with entrepreneurship skills so you can develop creative work and understand how to turn ideas into projects or businesses. Unlike a straight fine arts program, it emphasizes the practical and business side of creative work. It suits people who want to make art or design but also care about how creative work reaches audiences and generates opportunity.	Architectural Studies teaches you how to design buildings and spaces, from sketching initial ideas to understanding how they're built and function. This program includes paid work terms where you apply what you're learning at real architecture firms alongside your classroom studies. It suits students who combine creative design thinking with interest in how buildings work technically and who want practical experience before or alongside their formal studies.	You study the fundamentals of running businesses and organizations, covering topics like marketing, human resources, economics, and entrepreneurship. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at real companies, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits students who want a broad business foundation with flexible entry points into different industries, and who value learning by doing.
