The program provides students with a means for gaining career-related experience and testing out career options. For additional information, contact Al Stamberg , Co-op Program Director. You can also contact the office by calling 273-6041. The program defines the only difference between one of its internships and a cooperative education position as the frequency of placements in which the student participates. One placement is defined as an internship and two or more placements at the same or different organizations as a co-op .
Student meets co-op and academic department requirements for admission into the program.
To see available internships, go to UNI CareerLink and log in as a guest, as explained on the page. The meetings are held both fall and spring semesters. Students receive a Cooperative Education Faculty Approval Form during this orientation which must be signed by their faculty co-op supervisor prior to being admitted into the program. The bottom copy of this form is for the faculty co-op supervisor. This form specifies details related to the placement and is a proposal that is presented to faculty for approval.
