Work While You Study

Finding employment on campus or off campus while you study at the U of R is a great way to get valuable work experience, gain skills to help you find jobs after you graduate, develop connections and relationships, and help your financial situation.

There are many campus services that are designed to help you find a job.  We can connect you with the right campus service team for employment-related workshops so you can learn the process of finding employment in Canada!
