Co-operative Education
Becoming a co-operative education student is a great way to learn in a practical setting while learning about the different paths a human kinetics degree can take someone. This opportunity allows students to gain technical and work-related skills outside of the classroom. The co-operative program gives students two studying semesters and one paid work semester a year.
Role: Human Performance Co-Operative Assistant
There are a number of roles within this position including, but not limited to, the students administering sport performance tests, assisting in research projects and working alongside the athletic therapy and strength & conditioning teams in supporting the varsity athletes.
