Graduate students may enhance their studies with relevant experience through programs offered by the Career Center. Cooperative education and internships are available. Cooperative Education requires students to complete two work periods, one of which may be a summer.  Internships are one semester in duration and may occur during any academic period (fall, spring, summer). Students are encouraged to seek specific information prior to, or immediately upon, enrollment in the graduate program.

These credit-hour programs will be included on a graduate student’s transcript but cannot be used to satisfy course-hour requirements on a graduate student’s program of study:
