Internship and Co-op Registration for Spring 2026 is now open!
What is the Internship Program?
The Internship Program allows students to earn academic credit for their internship or co-op positions. If a student is working full-time, their enrollment in the program will also allow them to maintain their full-time student status while off-campus.
If you would like to register your internship/co-op for academic credit through the Career and Advising Center, follow the steps below.
Not sure if you should register with the Career and Advising Center? Reach out to our office or your academic advisor for guidance.
