While working full time with a Co-op employer, students receive support and guidance from Co-op coordinators, faculty and peers for success in the workplace, and to share and reflect on their work term experiences. A culminating project is completed to bring together industry and academic knowledge and showcase the work and skill development throughout each Co-op work experience. Students are enrolled into this course once hired for work terms beyond the minimum of 3 Co-op work terms required for their program.

A culminating project is completed to bring together industry and academic knowledge and showcase the work and skill development throughout each Co-op work experience. Students are enrolled into this course once hired for a Co-op work term. Arts and Science Co-op students will complete this course if completing an additional work term in the program - beyond the minimum requirement of 3 work terms for the Co-op program. Students can complete up to 5 work terms (2 additional terms).

In this course, Management Co-op students engage in a work term opportunity, which is a form of work-integrated learning, to improve their employability skills and workplace productivity by concentrating on key areas to foster their development.

The purpose of the work term placement is for students to gain experience in the professional world of development while applying knowledge gained in the classroom to real life experiences. The majority of students secure work terms with Canadian NGOs, research institutes or private sector consulting firms. Work terms are 8-12 months in length. The location and duration of the work terms will vary according to each student’s disciplinary and regional preferences, their experience and abilities, the availability of positions, and the practicability and safety of work.

This course is designed to provide students who have completed their first work term with tools and strategies to effectively integrate their recent work term experience into their job search documents, as well as practice articulating their new or enhanced skills and experience in an interview setting. Students are provided with opportunities to practice and refine their approach as they begin to seek their next Co-op work term. In class Apply Together sessions and one-on-one appointment consultations with your Work Term Engagement Coordinator will provide you with semester specific market trends, tools and resources to succeed in your job search. There are also online and in person forums for sharing work term and job search experience with junior Co-op students and peers.

This course is designed to provide students who have completed 2 work terms or more with tools and strategies to effectively integrate their recent work term experiences into their job search documents as well as practice articulating their new or enhanced skills and experience in an interview setting. Students are provided with opportunities to practice and refine their approach as they job search/compete for another Co-op work term. In class Apply Together sessions and one-on-one appointment consultations with your Work Term Engagement Coordinator will provide you with semester specific market trends, tools and resources to succeed in your job search. Having the experience of job searching and at least 8 months of work term experience, students share, compare, and contrast their individual experiences. There are also online and in person forums for sharing their work term and job search experience with junior Co-op students.

An introduction to the theory, ethics and contexts of art museum/gallery curatorial practice. Emphasis on communication through exploring interpretations and considering ethical practice. Students will learn specialized knowledge, resources, references and methodologies and explore professional and academic responsibilities of art-based curatorial work.

Art and the settings in which it is seen in cities today. Some mandatory classes to be held in Toronto museums and galleries, giving direct insight into current exhibition practices and their effects on viewer's experiences of art; students must be prepared to attend these classes.

Viewed from an artist’s perspective, this course considers the exhibition as medium, and curating as a creative act. By studying the history of exhibitions organized by artists and artist collectives, this course considers their influence on contemporary curatorial practice with a focus on historical and contemporary Canadian exhibitions.

Curatorial practice and the responsibilities of the curator, such as the intellectual and practical tasks of producing a contemporary art exhibition, researching Canadian contemporary art and artists, building a permanent collection, administrating a public art competition, and critical writing about works of visual art in their various contexts. Studio and/or gallery visits required.

Time and history bring different factors to our understanding and interpretation of artworks. Students will explore both intellectual and practical factors concerning curating historical art, from conservation, research, and handling issues to importance of provenance, collecting, and display, through workshops, critical writing and discussion, field trips, and guest speakers.
