Co-operative Education

Co-operative Education is available to students where they can alternate semesters of academic study with paid employment in a job that relates to their education. This arrangement permits students to acquire paid relevant work experience while also assisting in the financing of their studies. Students in co-operative programs gain a broader understanding of career options, in a variety of employment settings and become confident in applying educational skills in the workplace.
