The B.B.R.M. Co-op Experience 

A principal aim of the Co-op program in B.B.R.M. is to facilitate the transition of students from academic studies to a professional career by enhancing the integration of theory and practice.

The B.B.R.M. Co-op program is a five year program, including a minimum of four work terms. Students must follow the academic work schedule as outlined on the Co-operative Education website [1]. 

Information about policies, fees and work term requirements can be found on the Co-op Governance website [2].
