Presentation: Work-Integrated Learning

Learn how our programs complement in-class learning with hands-on experience through applied projects, hackathons, community-based learning opportunities and more. Through field placements and co-ops, internships, case-studies and capstone projects, hear about the many ways students acquire job-ready skills to actualize their career journeys. 

Presentation: Co-op Where You Don't Expect It

Co-op is more in-demand than ever, as students and their families (or supporters) seek out degree programs that will help them develop professional skills, make a confident transition to the workplace, and earn income.

Learn how York is integrating co-op programs to degrees where they would not be found traditionally. Across a wide range of programs, we are empowering students to develop practical skills that will make their resume stand out.
