The Co-op system of study provides Honours Psychology (BA and BSc) Majors the opportunity to gain 16 months of work experience before they graduate. Students who have been accepted to the Honours Psychology (BA or BSc) Major at the end of Year One may apply for admission to the Co-op system of study in November only of Year Two following the Psychology Co-op Information Session. Admission decisions are made the first week of January after Fall term grades are available. Admission is limited and is based on academic standing and space availability. For those accepted, the first work term will be at the end of Year Two. Students then alternate between academic terms and paid work terms, and will end the school/work sequence with a school term. Please refer to the Psychology Undergraduate Handbook (www.psychology.uwaterloo.ca/ugradprog/UG_Handbook.html) for further details about the Co-op system of study including a listing of potential co-op positions and the requirements for writing work-term reports.
