Welcome to the Cooperative Education Program at UMUC
What is Cooperative Education (Co-op)? Essentially, it is an opportunity for UMUC students to apply classroom theory to “real world” professional projects, and gain advanced academic credit. This is accomplished by developing a three-way learning agreement between a student, employer, and faculty.
The Cooperative Education program is designed to offer mutual benefits for each participant, incorporating mutual accountability. Co-op projects may be developed within most academic disciplines in the School of Undergraduate Studies at UMUC. Learning proposals for Cooperative Education may be based on part or full-time job situations, through work with federal, commercial, education and/or nonprofit organizations.
