| Co-OPs and Internships | ||

Please note that you need to apply for Co-Ops and Internet with time in advance. Co-Ops follow deadlines as registration for courses (one semester in advance), and incur tuition fees. However, they may not apply for your program. Internships are usually performed during the summer. They both are useful for collecting working experience.
