Software Engineering Co-op students are remunerated for the job duties that they perform as co-op students/interns. The determination of salary and benefits is left to the discretion of the employer (subject to the minimum requirements set forth in the Labour Code).

Salaries may be based on a variety of factors such as:

• Number of completed academic semesters;
• Number of past work terms completed;
• The company location (metropolitan area, geographical location, etc.) and;
• The current economic outlook.
• Some companies may also offer travel assistance, housing subsidies or assistance in locating housing, payment of student鈥檚 co-op fees, etc., in addition to the salary.

The employer must provide an official job offer letter to the student that includes the following details:

• The job position title
• Address of work
• Start and end dates of work
• Hours per week (standard is 35-40)
• Name of supervisor
• Rate of pay

听

Once the job offer letter is received, the student will:

• Sign and return the letter to the company prior to the start of the co-op work term;
• Submit a copy of the signed offer letter to the Software Co-op Office to ensure that the employment meets the co-op program's criteria of relevant experience (once the Software Co-op Office receives a copy of the signed co-op job offer letter from the student, the student will be cleared for registration in the appropriate co-op course);
• Register for the appropriate co-op course.

Please post co-op job opportunities to 听about one semester before the beginning of the work term.听

The 捆绑SM社区 Software Engineering Co-op Program offers employers flexibility. This program does not use a ranking/matching system and each student is required to accept the first offer given. For this reason, it is to the employer鈥檚 advantage to post early to have access to the full cohort of candidates.

Summer work term: post your jobs as of December/January

Fall work term: post your jobs as of May

Winter work term: post your jobs as of September

Work terms must be full time (35 to 40 hours per week),听last between 12 to 16 weeks within the work term and not overlap with the start or end of a different academic/work term.听

Summer term: The earliest start date is the first week of May and the end date should not听surpass the听last day of the last full week of August.

Fall term: The earliest start date is the first week of September听and the end date should not surpass the last day of the last full week of December.

Winter term: The earliest start date is the first week of January and the end date should not surpass the last day of the last full week of April.

We encourage you to discuss your evaluation with the student before the end of the work term. Students welcome feedback on their job performance and see constructive criticism as part of the learning process. If a student is performing multiple co-op work terms with you, an evaluation will be required at the end of each term.

A link to an online form will be shared with both you and your student around the mid-point of the work term with instructions and the due date. A completed evaluation form is a required component for the student to be graded and receive co-op credit.

Within one month of completion of the work term, fill out and send the Revenue Quebec Tax Credit Form for co-ops to the Co-op Office at softwarecoop.engineering [at] mcgill.ca (subject: Quebec%20Tax%20Credits) 听for review. A PDF copy of the digitally signed form will be returned to you signed by the Software Co-op Advisor. It is the employer鈥檚 responsibility to send the signed completed form to Revenue Quebec.
