Co-op Abroad
What is Co-op Abroad?
Co-op Abroad provides students with a unique opportunity to travel the world, while gaining experience in the workplace. Having this experience as an undergraduate is impressive to employers and makes your resume more competitive after graduation.
During a Co-op Abroad placement you will have the chance to learn a foreign language, develop your skills, and travel the world. More importantly, Co-op Abroad serves as professional and personal growth experience by forcing you to adapt to a new cultural environment. Students have been participating in Co-op Abroad since 1993.
Who can participate?
To be eligible for a Co-op Abraod work term, you must be a student registered in an undergraduate or graduate program at SFU, and be accepted into your Co-op Program (i.e. Business, Communication, Science).
International/Visa students already registered in an undergraduate or graduate program at 51社区黑料are also eligible to participate. If you are an international/visa student at 51社区黑料and would like to participate in a local (Canadian) work term, please contact your Co-op Program Coordinator or the Co-op Abraod Coordinator at icoop@sfu.ca.
