Co-op Student’s Responsibilities

It is expected that Mining and Materials Engineering Co-op students will:

  • provide accurate and appropriate information on their qualifications and interests when applying for positions.
  • notify the Engineering Career Centre office/Co-op Office well in advance if interviews must be rescheduled or cancelled.
  • notify the institution of acceptance or rejection of an offer within the time allotted.
  • honour the acceptance of the offer, since it is a contractual agreement with both the employer and the institution.

On the job the student will:

  • be responsible and accountable.
  • respect safety and the environment.
  • demonstrate ethical and professional judgment.
  • be punctual, resourceful, adaptable and productive.
  • recognize and respect the employer/employee relationship: communicate progress and areas of concern with the employer first and then with the Co-op Office.
  • represent McGill University to the best of his or her abilities.
