Coop Education Option
Cooperative education combines academic instruction and practical experience allowing students to develop work skills and gain experience while obtaining a formal education. The work-study sequence in Computer Science consists of eight study terms interspersed with four work terms. The first work term takes place during the winter (January-April) semester of 2nd year.

The co-op option is only available to full-time students in the B.Co.Sc. program who apply to the program after successfully completing 1st year. Students must have a minimum of 70% in COSC 1046, 1047 and
1056, an overall average of 70% in 1st year (based on 30 credits) and a satisfactory mid-term evaluation for the fall term of 2nd year. Students who do not fulfill all of these requirements may be considered on a
case-by-case basis.


Interviews are held in the fall term of 2nd year to evaluate each student’s readiness. A portion of the administration fee, charged at the time of application, is non-refundable. Students who are not selected
for the co-op option receive the refundable amount. Successful applicants must agree to provide academic transcripts to potential employers.

Co-op students may have limited choices in arts and science elective courses and, without careful planning, may not meet all of the elective requirements for their degree. Consequently, those interested in the co-op option are required to consult the program coordinator at every stage of their studies, especially before registering in 1st year.


Co-op students must be enrolled full time and maintain good academic status in accordance with the academic regulations specified herein. In addition, a student who fails one or more courses in a study term is subject to an interview with the chair and may be required to withdraw from the co-op option.

Co-op students must write a work term report after each work semester and their employer will provide an assessment of their performance in the workplace. The department will review both reports and assign a grade of S (satisfactory) or U (unsatisfactory) for the work term, which will appear on the transcript as non-credit courses COSC 0001, 0002, 0003 and 0004. A “U” normally results in a student’s withdrawal from the
co-op option. In this case, the student can revert to the regular program provided that he/she has maintained good academic standing.
