Internships

Paid internship assignments are designed for undergraduate and graduate level students. Students work under at least one practicing professional who provides guidance and mentorship during the 10- to 12-week internship. This position is normally not for academic credit.

Cooperative Education

A cooperative education (co-op) experience is generally completed by a student over more than one or more semesters/quarters. The student must receive academic credit for the work being performed. It includes work assignments related to the participant's academic degree being earned and career interests. The concept of cooperative education is based on paid work typically for three to 12 months or more, followed by full-time school the next.

Applications for internships and co-ops are accepted from early January through late April.
