Cooperative EducationThe optional non-credit Cooperative Education (Co-op) Program

enables students to alternate school and work terms and apply

their skills to the work setting. In addition to providing a source

of valuable talent, co-op students offer employers an opportunity

to identify qualified candidates prior to graduation. Ideally, co-op

is eight-months of hands-on engineering experience, occurring

either May through December or January through August.

The ECRC helped in every step

of the career search process.

It helped me define the types

of jobs I would enjoy as well as

the top industries I would like to

work in. Further, advice from the

ECRC helped me move beyond

a polished resume and elevator

pitch, to where I was actually

developing a professional identity

and sense of confidence that was

truly desirable to employers.

InternshipsNon-credit internships are popular amongst U-M engineering

and computer science students. Students have the opportunity

to gain valuable work experience in an engineering environment.

The assignments typically occur May through August and may

be in locations all over the world. Many students at the College

participate in internships. The internships in this publication

only include those that were reported to the ECRC.
