If you are interested in Co-op and meet the qualifications then Engineering Co-op & Career Services (ECCS) staff will work with you every step along the way to help you find a position. Students who stick with the program, utilize the resources available, and conduct a strategic search with the help of staff typically find a Co-op position.
Everything you need to know about the search timeline, on-campus recruiting, and offer process can be found by clicking the links on the left. You can also download our Engineering Cooperative Education Handbook for 2008-2009 Co-op Work Terms.
Although there are typically over 60 employers recruiting Cornell Co-op students each year, there are hundreds, maybe thousands of potential Co-op employers for you to consider. If you are interested in working for an employer not represented through “on-campus recruiting,” we encourage you to initiate an independent job search for a Co-op position, in addition to on-campus recruiting. This search should begin in the fall semester or over winter break. Throughout the process, refer to the Career Guide and our job search pages for additional resources and advice. A career advisor may also assist you as you go through this process. Schedule an appointment at 201 Carpenter Hall.
