Co-Op/Internship Opportunities
Co-ops and internships are work opportunities consistent with a student's course of study. Opportunities may be full-time or part-time. Participation in the co-op and internship program is available beginning sophomore year, to students who meet the academic requirements. Students who register their co-op or internship through Career Services will receive a co-op notation on their transcript. There are no fees for co-op registration. The co-op course does not carry academic credit, but registration for full-time co-op confers some benefits of full-time student status.
