This program offers the option to complete a work term, providing valuable hands-on experience in your field of study. Students interested in completing a work term should apply to the PROGRAMNAME ±è°ù´Ç²µ°ù²¹³¾.​

Students who select the work term stream will have the opportunity to participate in a work term(s) if eligibility requirements are maintained.

The work term(s) is similar in length to an academic semester and is typically a full-time position that may be paid or unpaid.

However, students will receive guidance and support through in-class career workshops and one-on-one coaching to help prepare for the work term.
