Experience

CEWIL/ECAMT Canada Accredited Program LogoCooperative Education is an integrated approach to higher education that enables highly motivated students to alternate academic terms with paid, relevant work experience. Science co-op students complete a standard academic degree program, as well as 3 or 4 co-op work terms in jobs related to their studies. For employers, hiring a co-op student is a great way to work a candidate for a potential full-time position with minimal risk. Science co-op programs are accredited by Cooperative Education and Work- Integrated Learning, Canada from 2022 to 2027. Note : Sustainable Chemistry is not yet accredited but once eligible, it is planned to apply for accreditation.
