Co-op and career
Many of our undergraduate students have taken co-op and found it very helpful in gaining relevant work experience as well as helping to fund their undergraduate program.
What is co-op?
Co-operative education (co-op) is a learning strategy that lets you
- combine your academic studies with paid, relevant work experience in your field of study
- enrich your academic studies by drawing on practical, real-world experience from your work terms
- develop competencies to excel in the workplace
Contact the co-op program in your degree area for details.
