Cooperative Education Program

BGSU Architectural Rendering of Technology, Engineering Innovation Center

The College of Technology, Architecture and Applied Engineering's Cooperative Education program integrates classroom study with work experiences. All students in the college participate in the Cooperative Education program, requiring one to three semesters of full-time co-op experiences (dependent on their major) prior to graduation. The Cooperative Education Program has strong connections with employers and in conjunction with the Kuhlin Hub for Career Design and Connection, faculty mentors, and academic advisors assists students in writing resumes, developing interview skills and searching for co-op opportunities.
