ARCH 0100EL

This course introduces students to work placements in various industries in and around Northern Ontario, and further afield if necessary. This first placement is intended to expose architecture students to industry internships, from mining to fabrication to friendship centers. The goal is to develop skills in the work-place as part of the professional practice co-op model. The paid placement is for a period of 13 weeks, with an employer/student report to be submitted at the end of the term. Internship preparation, interviews and placement are guided by the Co-op coordinator, but employment is ultimately the responsibility of each student. French speaking students are placed within French office environments wherever possible. Students are required to complete Co-operative Term 1A or 1B before being eligible to register for third year ARCH courses. (internship and reporting), cr. 1 (in Prof. Practice Stream).
