UBC Okanagan Interdisciplinary Co-op Information Session

March 17 at 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm

A stack of academic books is placed outdoors on a surface, with a black bicycle lock draped over them. The books cover topics such as anthropology, gender studies, and design. In the background, there is a blurred view of a white sculpture and a scenic outdoor setting. Overlaid text in bold, capitalized letters reads: "BOOK SMARTS MEETS STREET SMARTS," with "MEETS" in a lighter shade.

Interdisciplinary Co-op invites all interested students to attend a Co-op Information Session. 

Co-op offers undergraduate students enriched educational experiences through workplace learning in a diversity of organizations. Co-op is a paid opportunity for you to gain employable skills, explore career options, and build a professional network—all before graduation!

During this session, you will: 

  • Learn about what Co-op Education is and how it can fit within your degree.
  • Find out tips and expectations about the program application.
  • Hear from Co-op students as they share their personal experiences and journeys.

If you have any questions about Co-op or are looking to learn more, attend the following upcoming Information Session:

  • Tuesday, March 4, from 12–1 pm PT. Zoom.
  • Monday, March 17, from 3:30-4:30 pm PT. EME 1151.

Note that both sessions cover the same content, so you should only sign up for one session.
