Co-op Information and Timing

Aerospace Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op starts the summer after junior year and should continue for the entire senior year due to pre-requisite course requirements.

Biomedical Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op starts the summer after junior year and should continue for the entire senior year due to pre-requisite course requirements.

Chemical Engineering

Two options are available for scheduling a co-op. Students may begin the co-op in Spring of the junior year and continue through the summer, or they may begin that summer and continue through the Fall of the senior year. In both cases, a specific course is indicated to be taken online during one of the co-op semesters to ensure pre-requisites are met for courses taken upon return from the co-op. The student can then complete the degree with just one additional semester after the 4th year.

OPTION 1

OPTION 2

Computer Science

Beginning with the Fall 2017 first-year class, ideal timing for co-op is the summer after junior year, continuing through the Fall semester of senior year. Degree completion would occur in Fall of the 5th year.

Computer Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2017 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op is the summer after sophomore year, continuing through the Fall semester of junior year. Degree completion would occur in the Fall of the 5th year.

Civil/Structural Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op is the summer after junior year and should continue for the entire senior year due to pre-requisite course requirements.

Engineering Science

Ideal timing for a co-op starts the summer after junior year and should continue for the entire senior year due to pre-requisite course requirements.

Environmental Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op starts the summer after junior year and should continue for the entire senior year due to pre-requisite course requirements.

Electrical Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op is the summer after junior year, continuing through the Fall semester of senior year. With proper planning and extra course work in Spring of senior year, it is possible for degree completion in four years (with Fall of the 5th year as a worst case scenario). Please consult the EE Academic Coordinator for details regarding required courses EE408 and EE478.

Industrial Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op is the summer after junior year and should continue through the Fall semester of senior year due to pre-requisite course requirements.

Mechanical Engineering

Beginning with the Fall 2016 first-year class, ideal timing for a co-op is the summer after junior year, continuing through the Fall semester of senior year. Degree completion would occur in Fall of the 5th year by taking MAE 451 and 494 concurrently.
