Co-op at the UofL
What is Co-operative Education?
Co-op is an educational process which promotes partnerships between students, employers (including many of our very own Faculty) and the University of Lethbridge to create a unique and enriching learning environment. This worldwide program strengthens educational programs, while providing employers with access to well-educated candidates for immediate term positions and/or future permanent recruitment needs
