COOP

Cooperative Education is a planned learning experience, for which credits are earned, that integrates classroom theory and learning experiences at a workplace. The experience enables students to apply and refine the knowledge and skills acquired in a related curriculum course. The Co-op is a supervised work experience in a position in the government or the private sector which aimed to assist students in making the transition from the classroom to industry. Students are required to finish 520 hours on the job to earn 6-credit hours for the course.
