Students in the engineering and math faculties usually earn:

1st year: C$563 per week (C$14.10 per hour) [£226 p.w., £5.66 p.h.]
2nd year: C$678 per week (C$16.95 per hour) [£272 p.w., £6.80 p.h.]
3rd year: C$772 per week (C$19.30 per hour) [£310 p.w., £7.75 p.h.]
4th year: C$800+ per week (over C$20 per hour) [£320+ p.w., £8.00+ p.h.]

Graduation: starting at $48,000 a year [£19,250] on average



Damn, after conversion, I just realized how worthless the loony is. Reason I'm wondering is I want to try and get a co-op job outside of Canada and the United States. Probably Australia or Ireland. But I'd take anyplace.


i think this is going to be another confusing one , what are these ppl earning the money for , is it some sort of apprenticeship ????????????? , minimum wage in the uk is about £4.50 hour
