KPU Arts has more than 50 faculty who routinely engage with external partners to tie hands-on learning to students’ coursework, including both paid and unpaid student learning experiences. This is made possible because of our small class sizes of 35 students, giving you more face time with instructors and more chances to explore work-integrated learning opportunities.
To learn more about work-integrated learning and co-operative education contact us at connect@kpu.ca.
KPU Arts students have had some fun and thought-provoking experiential learning opportunities over the years. Learn more about KPU Arts and the showcase of students' work at the Historic Joy Kogawa House.
