Cooperative Education
Interested in College-level engineering co-op programs ? Such programs, though rare, have existed since 1906. The program at Kettering University was established when the school first opened its doors as the School of Automotive Trades in 1919. US News and World Report has ranked Kettering University as "the #1 University in the nation for Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering" in its annual "America's Best Colleges Guide".
The goal a professional cooperative education program is to combine theory taught in the classroom with the experience gained in the workplace. The mandatory work component of the program represents a substantial portion of your curriculum, and your level of responsibility normally increases as you complete advanced coursework.
A unique feature of Kettering University is that it sends students to work in their freshman year. You are encouraged you with the same organization throughout your entire undergraduate education. This gives the student plenty of time to develop their talents and skills, increasing their value to their co-op employer.
Kettering offers one of the few co-op programs in the nation that alternates three month work terms with three month school terms. This allows students to immediately apply what they learn in the classroom on the job.
