Co-op Student of the Year Awards

Every year, one student from each faculty is presented with a Co-op Student of the Year Award for making exceptional contributions to their employer on one or more of their work terms. These awards take place towards the end of the winter term and celebrate student achievements from the winter, spring and fall terms of the previous calendar year.

If you’ve made an exceptional contribution to one or more of your work term employers in 2022, you could be eligible for a 2022 Co-op Student of the Year Award (ceremony held in 2023). You must be currently registered as a Waterloo student and preferably have an academic term at Waterloo in either winter or spring 2022.

Nominations for the 2022 Co-op Student of the Year Awards are now closed and will reopen in May 2023.
