Co-Op in Management and Leadership

Catalog description

This co-op program provides management students with an opportunity to work full-time in a company and apply what they have learned in their Management and Leadership classes. It also enhances students’ employment opportunities since many employers use a co-op program as a first step before they hire full-time employees. Students are evaluated periodically by senior staff members of the participating firms and are required to complete a work journal and reflection paper. Supervising faculty will meet with the student regularly to discuss their progress and accomplishments in the co-op. Co-op credits can be applied toward business or free elective requirements.
