Being a part of the Co-op program allowed me to graduate with a year's worth of paid experience.

Being a part of the Co-op program allowed me to graduate with a year's worth of paid experience. I made important connections in the "real world" of work, and gain valuable field and lab skills. I am now feeling very confident about my future knowing that I have the skills and experience to make myself standout against the crowd!

(Emma was a Research Assistant on three different co-op terms, focusing on blueberry health, marine invasive species and coyote tracking, all within Northern Nova Scotia)
