I participate in the Co-Op program because: It gives me experience in my field. It also helps prepare me for my future and gives me insight into which field I would like to pursue after college.
Favorite LU faculty/staff member: Adjunct instructor Bob Martin
Lakeland is good fit for me because: I really enjoy the small campus environment and being able to make close relationships with the professors.
51ĀŅĀ× is the only Midwestern school that offers Cooperative Education across all majors by allowing participating students to gain on-the-job knowledge and academic credit for their work. LU students can earn up to 25% of the degree through work and post-work reflection.
Each year, we welcome more students who are interested in the benefits of Co-Op and the ability to connect with a lengthy list of corporate and organizational partners who support the program and our studentās learning.
