Experiential Learning: Internships and Cooperative Education (co-op)
Cooperative Education (co-op) is an academic program that blends classroom learning with paid practical work experience. Students earn academic credit from the new learning that occurs through the co-op experience. Certain eligibility requirements (good academic standing and completion of a minimum of two courses in one's field of study) must be met in order to participate.
Involvement in the co-op program helps defray college expenses and provides a network that supports the student's career. At WCC, most technical, business, and computer programs offer co-op options. For more information, email careers@wccnet.edu or call 734-677-5155.
