CO-OP AND INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE
Co-op programs
Co-operative Education is your link between the classroom and the world of work. Our program helps you put your learning to work by alternating full-time academic terms with full-time, paid work terms. We set you up for success with relevant seminars, courses, coaching and advising.
Co-op students graduate with the kind of practical experience that today's employers are seeking – a combination of academic and real-world work experience, research knowledge and business acumen.
5 Reasons to Join Concordia's Co-op Program:
- Jumpstart your career
- Earn a salary to help finance your education
- Experience 12 months of relevant work in your field of study
- Explore different career/work opportunities
- Take advantage of networking and mentoring opportunities
After you’ve read about Co-op and chosen a program, you’re ready to apply to Co-op.
Not yet a Concordia student? You apply to Co-op at the same time as you submit a general Concordia application. Check off “I want to apply for the co-op option” when you choose your program

Industrial Experience Programs
The Industrial Experience Program is a paid, 12- to 16-week work experience relevant to your program, credited by Concordia University. Unlike the full co-op program, you typically only participate in one work-term during the course of your study.
Visit the INEX webpage for the application process, details, and restrictions.
