Cooperative education and internships give you the chance to explore what you can do with your college major in the workplace.  These hands-on experiences allow you to earn college credits, acquire or improve skills, and gain experience.  Work experience can help you change directions or expand your career options.  Either way, the experience is invaluable to you and signals to employers that you are motivated, willing to challenge yourself, and in control of your career.

• gain work experience,
• explore whether or not you have chosen the career or academic major that is best for you
• earn college credit,

• earn money,
