Business Co-op

Business co-op gives you the opportunity to explore your career interests, develop practical skills and connect classroom learning to a professional work environment.

“My favourite part was working with clients across the globe—we personally helped grow clients’ online stores. To see your name mentioned in a review is one of the strongest motivators.”

Ian Kobylanski, BCom '18, intern with LimeSpot Solutions in Vancouver, BC
