International Students - DEGREES with a Mandatory Work Placement

  1. You must be eligible to participate in the work placement as scheduled in your curriculum.
  2. Students are strongly advised to apply for their Coop Work Permit during or prior to Year 3 of their academic program. If you did not apply for your Coop Work Permit at the time of offer acceptance, please visit the Work Placement Office (NX302) by end of Semester 5 (fall term) to request a letter confirming the work placement mandatory requirement.
  3. This letter must accompany your application for the Coop Work Permit. Applications and assistance is available at Humber’s International Centre on the 2nd Floor of the LRC.
  4. To access jobs in the School of Applied Technology Student Job Portal, International students must first provide the Work Placement Office with physical proof of their application for a Canadian Coop Work Permit.
  5. While waiting for the Coop Work Permit to arrive, students should be actively networking and applying to jobs.
  6. When Your Coop Work Permit Arrives, you must submit a physical copy to the Work Placement Office. You cannot commence employment prior to receiving the Coop Work Permit and prior to notifying the Work Placement Office.
