Cooperative Education is an alternative college program in which students are employed for specific periods of on- or off-campus work. This employment is related as closely as possible to each student's course of study and individual interest. The blend of classroom theory and practical on-the-job training adds a vital dimension to learning experiences. Numerous advantages accrue from the Cooperative Education approach to learning, such as career direction and financial assistance for participating students, a source of manpower for employers, and an avenue to better relate the college to the community.
A student may participate in the Co-Op Program and earn credit toward degree requirements depending on his/her major. In order to be eligible for the Co-Op Program, the student should:
Be enrolled in a curriculum program.
Have been at Isothermal for at least 1 semester.
Have at least a 2.0 GPA.
Be employable.
