Co-op Education





Enhance your academic study with a paid work term.

The co-operative education option allows you to apply your knowledge, develop skills and gain confidence, while you earn money to help pay for tuition.

Employers benefit from hiring a co-op student in that they can solve short-term resource challenges, build capacity for new ventures, and bring fresh ideas to their workplace.


I got real experience and insight from top researchers in my field of interest, which has helped me find work after graduating. -Casey O’Laughlin, MSc
