International education

International education has a significant impact on our campus community and Canadian social, economic and cultural well-being. Opportunities to work and volunteer around the world broaden our students' perspectives, expose them to different models of health care practice, and build cultural competency. Take a look at some of the unique co-op and volunteer international experiences completed by pharmacy students.

Learn more about working internationally at the Waterloo Co-op working abroad page.

International co-op and volunteer experiences have their own unique requirements and require significant advanced planning and organization. If you are thinking about pursuing an international learning opportunity, contact the Experiential Coordinator for Co-op Anthony Miller well in advance of your planned experience to discuss options. Funding support may be available from the School of Pharmacy and the University of Waterloo.
