***IMPORTANT***
Please review the intake dates and deadlines. For students joining the Co-op program close to the maximum credits of 90, students must take COOP 1101 during the intake they have been accepted. This is to ensure students have ample time to complete their required work terms and still end on an academic term. We strongly advise students to consult with an academic advisor in their faculty to effectively plan their course and work term schedules.

Applications for the Co-op program are accepted all year around. Full details can be found on the Apply to Co-op page.

Student Testimonial
“Enrolling in Co-op was the best move I made. My instructor walked me through the process and was very helpful along the way. Co-op allowed me to get my foot in the door in a field I wanted, with no experience. After my work term the company hired me and I work in a field doing what I love!” - Daniel Leung - Information Technology Co-op student
