McMaster, OCAD U offer students hands-on learning opportunities

McMaster University and OCAD University have announced new opportunities for students to gain hands-on learning experience that will serve them in their future workplaces. McMaster’s Faculty of Social Sciences is launching co-op program options in Economics, Political Science, and Work and Labour Studies. The co-op streams will provide students with the opportunity to apply their learning in the workplace and position details will be noted on students’ transcripts. OCAD U has opened the Experimental Fabrication Studio, a digital maker facility where students can work with cutting-edge digital media and advanced manufacturing equipment. With the new facility, the university will be able to grow its high-demand programs and new micro-credentials.
