Co-op

What is co-op?

Co-operative education (co-op) is a learning strategy that lets you:

• alternate 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.
