Employers
The Faculty of Business and Economics Career Centre works closely with our employer partners to engage students and create mutually beneficial opportunities for students to gain valuable professional experience. Employers can post opportunities to attract and hire students or recent grads.
As an employer partner you will gain access to post opportunities including co-ops, internships, mentorship, and much more.
With a variety of recruitment and networking events throughout the year, there’s always an opportunity to connect with our faculty and students. Check out our Events Calendar for news about upcoming networking and recruitment events.
Internships provide an opportunity to develop work experience in an industry of interest. They enhance skills developed through studies, and facilitate practical application and portfolio-building through real-world work assignments.
The FBE offers a variety of internships across many areas of study. These internships involve valuable on-the-job training that helps students develop their professional skills and can lead to future employment with the organization.
Hiring an FBE intern is a great solution for short term projects, business cycle peaks, seasonal work, and helps organizations develop longer-term recruitment strategies for their future and ongoing business needs.
The CPA Fall Campus Recruitment is when Pre-approved Program Route (PPR) and Experience Verification Route (EVR) employers have an opportunity to recruit UWinnipeg students for permanent, summer and co-op (fall, winter, and summer) positions.
