Co-op Program

Co-operative education (co-op) is an educational model that combines academic studies with work experience. It is an opportunity to apply theory to practice and develop a meaningful view of the working world and cultivate an awareness of yourself as a professional. Employers supervise their students and evaluate their performance, and co-op coordinators monitor students’ progress on the job. Students are paid by their employers. Students in the co-operative education program will extend their time at university in order to achieve the academic credit to graduate with the co-op option for their degree program.
