- Cooperative Education Program (Co-op)
- What is cooperative education?
- Cooperative Education (Co-op) is an optional, counseling-centered program that offers students the opportunity to alternate periods of academic study with periods of work closely related to their major field of study. The combination of academic study and work produces an overall learning experience that gives greater meaning to students’ studies and more direction to career development.
- This program is non-compulsory; however, the University urges students to gain work experiences either through internships or cooperative education assignments prior to graduation. The program is student oriented and centralized in the Office of Career Services (OCS).
- Who can participate?
- Any undergraduate and graduate student seeking a degree at North Carolina A&T State University (NCAT) can participate. Participants must establish and maintain at least a 2.0 overall grade point average. Freshmen must complete their first academic year prior to their first work assignment. Transfer students must complete one semester.
- Students must be register with the OCS.
