The number of co-op streams at Trent University have jumped up.
According to the school, new paid co-op streams in the Criminology B.A. and Communications B.A. programs are designed to meet the interests and demands of prospective students for hands-on career experience.
Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences, Dr. Mark Skinner, says the value of an arts degree-either from the Humanities or Social Sciences-has grown significantly in recent years as skills such as creativity, critical thinking, and human-centred decision making are increasingly being sought after in all different types of organizations and sectors.
The Criminology and Communications co-op streams are just two of several programs featuring new work-integrated learning and career preparation opportunities within the Humanities and Social Sciences at Trent.
Applications to all paid co-op streams for fall 2023 are now open.
