Computing is no longer restricted to science, engineering and business. It appears everywhere and in many roles. It is now so broad a field that students can only master part of it in a four year degree program. Some students prefer the complex technical details that form the foundation of computing, others prefer the challenges that occur at the interface between people and computers. Many want to use computers to amplify their talents in different disciplines, from anthropology to film to medicine to zoology.
By studying computing science at the University of Alberta, you acquire technical knowledge and problem-solving skills to create innovative solutions for a wide range of challenges.
For co-op: You must be a Canadian Citizen, Permanent Resident or International Student. Some internships require students to be Canadian Citizens. You must have completed the equivalent of three years in a computing science undergraduate program successfully. This requirement means having at least three, and no more than 11, courses left to complete. You must be in good standing, with a minimum GPA of 2.3. You must be currently registered in one of the following categories, as recorded on your official transcripts: Bachelor of Science with Honors - Computing Science Bachelor of Science with Specialization - Computing Science Science After-Degree - Computing Science Specialization
