Biology (Co-Op)

Acadia University’s Co-op Program is nationally accredited and integrates study terms with paid, discipline-related work terms. Co-op students complete three 4-month work terms, earning two credit hours per work term, or a 12 or 16-month internship, earning six credit hours upon competition. Students should apply to Co-op at the beginning of their 2nd year, but 3rd year students are also welcome (depending on credit hours completed). All Co-op students participate in mandatory professional development workshops and receive one-on-one coaching in resume and cover letter writing, interview preparation, and workplace professionalism.
