ENGINEERING-INDUSTRY INTERNSHIP (More than Co-Op)

The Engineering Industry Internship Program (IIP) provides undergraduate students with practical engineering experience in industry. This option to "earn while you learn" is available to students who have successfully completed third year of the Bachelor of Engineering Science program. Students spend 12 or 16 months working in industry and this time spent in IIP may count as one-year pre-graduation experience toward the four years experience required for licensing as a Professional Engineer in the Province of Ontario.
Any engineering student who is completing third year, has at least a 65% average, completes an Industry Internship Training Session and who is recommended by a faculty member, may enroll in the program. Students interested in the program should apply at the Career Development Office not later than the end of November of their third academic year.
Students accepting internship positions are registered in the course
ES 406 "Engineering Industry Internship" and pay a placement fee. Participation in this program will postpone graduation by one year.

Students who qualify to receive a continuing scholarship in the academic year in which they participate in the Engineering Industry Internship program are permitted to defer receipt of the scholarship for one year.
