More Info on coop @ eess
Cooperative Education is a program in which students earn credits through related subjects and the cooperative education course (classroom and placement component). It involves a partnership between the student, employer, school and the parent/guardian.
Students in Coop Programs are considered to be full time students and are not employees of the placement (in most cases). Accident and liability insurance is available for students in the program.
Cooperative Education teachers conduct on-site learning assessments. Students are assessed and evaluated by both the Cooperative Education Teacher and Placement Supervisor throughout the semester.
