Alumni Story
“I completed a co-op with the City of Hamilton while I was a Mohawk student. I worked within the water department responsible for upgrading the water distribution and wastewater collection systems. This helped me prepare for the workforce and taught me valuable skills. This co-op also helped me build contacts which ultimately led to being referred for my job with the City.”
