Additional Information
Program Resources
Algonquin College has been granted a consent by the Minister of Colleges and Universities (MCU) to offer this applied degree for a seven-year term starting October 21, 2024. The College shall ensure that all students admitted to the above-named program during the period of consent have the opportunity to complete the program within a reasonable timeframe.
CO-OP INFORMATION
Co-operative education (Co-op) provides students with the opportunity to integrate classroom learning with real-world experience through paid, program-related work terms.
Two academic terms before their first co-op work term, students must actively participate in and complete a self-directed co-op preparation course, including required readiness activities and workshops.
Students are responsible for conducting a guided, self-directed job search and securing approved, paid co-op employment related to their program of study. Co-op students compete for positions alongside students from Algonquin College and other Canadian and international colleges and universities. While Algonquin College's Co-op & Career Centre supports students by developing co-op opportunities and providing guidance throughout the process, employment is not guaranteed.
Co-op work opportunities may require students to relocate. All costs associated with participation-including travel, accommodation, work permits, visa applications, and other related expenses-are the responsibility of the student.
Co-op work terms are typically 14 weeks in duration and are completed during academic terms when students are not enrolled in classes. For details about the number and timing of co-op work terms in your program, please refer to the Courses tab on your program's webpage.
Successful completion of all required co-op work terms listed on the program page is mandatory for graduation. Students are expected to remain on schedule and participate in co-op work terms as planned. Failure to complete a co-op work term as scheduled may result in an unscheduled break in studies, which can delay graduation and may have implications for immigration status for international students.
International students who experience an unscheduled break in studies due to academic progression issues beyond their control may be eligible for an authorized leave. In such cases, consultation with the International Education Centre is required before the scheduled start of the co-op work term to review potential academic and immigration implications.
International students are responsible for ensuring they meet all co-op work permit requirements before participating in a co-op work term. Additional information is available at:
www.algonquincollege.com/international/student-handouts
For more information about co-op programs, expectations, and general and program-specific co-op eligibility criteria, visit:
www.algonquincollege.com/coop-career-centre

Applicants with degrees or degree level courses from Canadian institutions empowered to award degrees and from other degree granting institutions recognized by the Ontario Ministry of Colleges and Universities (MCU) are assessed on a case-by-case basis. To receive a course credit, a minimum grade of C- (60%) is required. Official transcripts and course descriptions/outlines must be presented with the application for credit recognition. Applicants with degrees or degree level courses from countries other than Canada or from postsecondary institutions not recognized by the MCU must have their degrees evaluated by a recognized Canadian public or private institution that specializes in the evaluation of international degree programs.
