School of Computing and Information Science, College of Physical and Engineering Science

The Honours Bachelor of Computing degree is also available as a Co-operative Education Program. Students may apply for this option at the time of University admission or completion of semester 2. Three co-op work terms are required in Stream A and four are required in Stream B. Please check with CIS Co-op faculty advisor for semester planning.

Students are advised to plan their schedule of studies well in advance so that they can take all required prerequisites for later (especially 4000 level) courses. Students should note that some 4000 level courses are only given in alternate years. Failure to plan may result in the inability to take a particular senior CIS course.

The course COOP*1100 must be successfully completed before the student may apply for a placement for the first work term (normally 2 semesters before the first work term).

Other sequences may not be viable for the co-op student. Please check with the CIS Co-op faculty advisor for semester planning. COOP*1000, COOP*2000, COOP*3000, and COOP*4000 represent the first, second, third, and fourth work terms respectively.

Conditions for graduation are the same as the corresponding regular B.Comp. Program. In addition, all work reports and performance evaluations must have a grade of satisfactory or better.
