    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
    • potentially pursue work terms related to your graduate research or project
    Can you do co-op?

    Graduate co-op may be available to students who are pursuing thesis and non-thesis (or professional) degrees. Participation is optional, and admission is determined after consultation with your graduate adviser and department.
