FEAS Co-op & Internship Program
The civil engineering program offers paid, full-time co-operative internship opportunities. Our students and alumni can’t say enough about how taking part in co-op transformed their education, their careers and their lives. It’s no surprise. Studies have shown that the benefits of co-op are vast, including opportunities to:
- Develop crucial skills such as communication, teamwork and leadership.
- Experience first-hand exactly what engineering employers expect.
- Broaden your professional network and make lasting industry connections.
- Gain an edge in today’s competitive job market.
As part of your studies, you’ll have the opportunity to work for leading companies in Canada, such as EllisDon, Toronto Transit Commission, and the Ontario Ministry of Transportation—building your resumé, your network and your confidence along the way.

“During my internship at EllisDon, I got to work on bridges around the city. The experience enhanced my understanding of my undergrad curriculum and strengthened my technical knowledge vastly. Most importantly, it gave me a taste of the real world, as well as confidence in my choice of career path.”
