Co-operative Internship

Two engineers discussing work at a desk

Why do co-op?

The aerospace engineering program offers paid, full-time co-operative internship opportunities. Our students and alumni can’t say enough about how taking part in co-op transformed their education, their careers and their lives. It’s no surprise. Studies have shown that the benefits of co-op are vast, including opportunities to:

  • Develop crucial skills such as communication, teamwork and leadership.
  • Experience first-hand exactly what engineering employers expect.
  • Broaden your professional network and make lasting industry connections.
  • Gain an edge in today’s competitive job market.

As part of your studies, you’ll have the opportunity to work for leading companies in Canada, such as Air Canada, Bombardier Aerospace, and the Department of National Defence—building your resumé, your network and your confidence along the way.

"The experiences I gained through my internships at Bombardier Aerospace and Celestica International have taught me to constantly challenge myself and to find innovative ways to solve the problem at hand. Implementing these new skills during my internships and final year has increased my confidence and helped me reach my full potential."
