Those Co-op programs in University

Hey all,

I’m applying to UBC right now and just saw one of those Coop programs. It’s like spending an extra year (in addition to the 4 year program) to work with other companies. Would that be useful after I come out of university? They say it is because it’s experience. But is it worth it to spend an extra year? And it also might not be so beneficial if I go on w/ the Masters degree / PhD.

Thanks!
