I found there to be a good selection of co-op opportunities in the MBA program. My experience was the department there is full of hard-working people who truly care about making sure their students are getting lined up with opportunities that are helping them grow and develop their professional skills. There were jobs from all over available to be applied to, with a fairly high concentration of them being in Toronto, Waterloo region, or surrounding areas, although there were some that were a little further afield. They are certainly plugged in with all the major Canadian companies in the area.
