About this program

PGWP - Post-Graduation Work Permit
PGWP is a key component of post-study rights in Canada, offering graduates up to three years of full work rights. This includes benefits for both the graduate and their partner, along with educational advantages for children.
Intern/Job-Placement
The institution has a specialized department for internships and professional placement, providing crucial support for students by connecting them to opportunities that propel their careers.
Co-Op - Cooperative Education
Co-op seamlessly integrates paid work experience with academic learning. Many Canadian institutions offer about half of the course duration in Co-op mode, enabling students to work full-time during Co-op and part-time during classes.

The Computer Application Security program, with an optional co-op, equips software development graduates for entry-level roles in the rapidly growing field of computer security. Covering networked, web, and mobile application security, the curriculum, taught by industry experts, emphasizes defense against malware and hackers. Graduates gain both technical and management skills, expanding career opportunities in software development companies. The program includes an optional co-op work term for practical experience.

 

Optional Co-op

Admission to the co-op stream relies on an 80% average in Level 1, and seat availability depends on labor market conditions. International students may experience longer wait times for work permits. No co-op fee refunds are available after the withdrawal date. Continuing in co-op without a permit is at the student’s risk, and early discussions with a co-op advisor are advised for work permit concerns.
