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 collaborative Career Center process is designed in a way that offers mutual benefits for each participant, incorporating mutual accountability. Career Center projects may be developed within most academic disciplines in the School of Undergraduate Studies at UMUC. Career Center project proposals may be based on part or full-time job situations, through work with federal, commercial, education, and/or non-profit organizations.
