Brandon University kicked off Homecoming Week activities with an inaugural Welcome Back Co-op Breakfast, bringing together more than 100 students, alumni, faculty, employers, and community leaders to celebrate the power of co-operative education.

Held Tuesday morning on campus, the event highlighted how BU’s Co-op program connects students to meaningful work opportunities across Manitoba, across Canada, and around the world — and how those experiences help build stronger communities and stronger futures.

Brandon University’s Co-operative Education Program (BU Co-op) continues to demonstrate its impact, with 42 out of 48 participating students already having secured summer employment in 2025. These students, employed in work that’s related to their field of study, gain paid experience and build connections in industries across Manitoba and beyond.
