data analysis research software/system development information technologyLooking to elevate your organization, and take it to the next level? Bring on students from Ryerson University in our growing Computer Science Co-op Program to be your virtual interns, in a project-based experience. Students will work on one or more projects of your choosing over the internship period, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.
Students in the co-op program are poised to succeed in the integrated work areas of: software engineering, web-based development, database design, computer vision, robotics, artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, computer graphics and virtual reality
Students are required to complete 350-420 hours of experience between May to August.
These students are looking for exclusively paid co-op experience. As such, please do not request to work with this program, unless your organization is able to offer paid opportunities.
Learners
Deliverables will vary depending on the scope of the internship. However, these deliverables must be discussed and agreed upon prior to the start of the internship.
Project Examples
Requirements
Students can complete a substantial project for your organization over the working period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student (and company) a tangible goal.
Project examples/co-op positions that students can complete may include, but are not limited to:
- Mobile App Developer
- QA Test Analyst
- Full Stack Software Developer
- Programmer Analyst
- Web Developer
- IT Systems Analyst
- Data Scientist
Additional company criteria
Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:
Be available for a quick phone/virtual call with the instructor to initiate your relationship and confirm your scope is an appropriate fit for the internship.
Provide a dedicated contact who will act as the student's primary supervisor over the duration of the virtual placement. A secondary contact should be provided as a backup.
Provide ongoing support and mentorship to students throughout the internship. Students will interact virtually with their primary contact no less than once a week.
