Saint Mary’s University’s Sobey School of Business will be launching a co-op option that counts toward a Bachelor of Commerce degree. Students will be able to complete up to three work terms for credit, earning up to nine credits that count toward their degree’s elective requirements. They will set goals at the beginning of their placements and reflect on what they learned and encountered. Work terms will be graded as pass/fail. “This is a student-centred change that strengthens our degree without adding barriers,” said SMU Associate Dean, Undergraduate and Professional Graduate Programs Dr Vurain Tabvuma.
