Four 4th years will briefly describe their own varied coop experiences and then we will open the floor for a panel Q&A. Come with your questions about the Coop process: finding a position, matching, academic vs. industry, courses you should take to prepare yourself for coop etc.
There will be Timbits.
Everyone is welcome to attend.
