The Industrial Practice Programs (IP Programs or IPP) of the Erik Jonsson
School of Engineering and Computer Science include the School�s Cooperative
Education, Internship, and Curricular Practical Training programs. These programs
combine classroom learning with paid work experience. Qualified students are
referred to participating employers seeking candidates for career-related,
pre-professional, work assignments. The programs enhance a student�s education
and career preparation by integrating classroom theory with on-the�job
performance; providing an understanding of work environments and professional
requirements; testing career and professional goals; developing confidence,
maturity, and skills in human relations; and establishing professional contacts
and interests.
Students enroll in Engineering Computer Science Co-op (ECSC) courses during
semesters when working on an IPP assignment. Students are expected to follow
the rules of the IP Programs when working in a position titled by the employer
as an Internship or a Cooperative Education assignment.
