What are work-integrated learning options?
One of the reasons I applied for UCalgary was the internship program. Right now I’m at ATCO, working in their Ashcor division. I help engineers with ash recovery operations. It's a great opportunity to gain eperience and increases your chances to find a good job when you graduate.

This course will help you gain transferable skills you can use in the workplace.
