Cooperative Education (CE) is the title for CSS 497, the final core requirement and the program capstone course for advanced CSS students. Cooperative Education provides students with the opportunity to earn academic credits while working on a project that has potential benefits for industry or community organizations.
Typically students complete 10 credits (400 hours) of Cooperative Education in their final quarter (s). Students learn by connecting classroom theory and community-based experience through the completion of an academic project. Project options consist of internships, research with faculty, individual projects, or group projects.
