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

Visit the psychology co-op website for details on admission requirements and how to apply.
