Computer Science Co-op Programs

See: Institute for Co-operative Education

Computer Science graduates are qualified to:

• design and create new software, and modify and test existing software used in a broad range of businesses and industries;
• devise new and more efficient algorithms and techniques;
• analyse and develop computer solutions to meet clients’ information processing, database and computation needs;
• plan and implement computer security systems for database access control;
• provide technical support for sales functions requiring specialized knowledge;
• advise clients on their computing needs or provide support in the development of the software and hardware;
• make decisions involving people, materials and money where knowledge of both computer software and hardware is essential.
