How tough is it going to be to find a co-op for Winter 2021, considering the Fall term is going to be online?

As this is a dynamic situation, we can’t predict exactly what the Winter 2021 work term will look like. However, what we can advise is that we will continue to support our co-op students to meet their degree requirements and have meaningful co-op experiences while adhering to government and University travel guidelines. We will also continue to work closely with our network of over 7,000 co-op employers to encourage them to continue to bring our talented students into their organizations, and build upon the activities that have been successful during the Spring and all term hiring.  

When we know more about what the Winter 2021 co-op work term will look like, we’ll be sure to update both our students and our employers as soon as possible. 

In the meantime, students can reach out to their assigned co-op advisor for answers to co-op questions and support around the work search process.
