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.
For more information about the IP Programs, call (972) 883-4363. The IP
Programs are located in ECSS 2.502.
