What is a co-op or an internship?
A co-op or internship is a short-term learning experience for students in a professional work environment and is typically related to the student’s major or career goal. The opportunity generally involves a student working in a setting under the supervision of and mentoring a business professional. The work can be paid or unpaid and may or may not be eligible for academic credit.
