Current students

Organizations can post jobs or volunteer opportunities for current students looking for summer/seasonal positions or for ongoing part-time/casual work.

Co-op work terms

Employers can also hire students through our Co-operative Education program. Co-operative education blends on-campus learning with practical applied learning. We link highly motivated students with employers in various fields. Co-op students can alternate their study terms with paid, professional work terms in industry. Co-op is a flexible, cost-effective partnership between employers, educators, and students.
