Full Time Student and Co-op


This semester, IRE students have had the choice to work on companies while participating on a co-op, and still attend IRE full-time. The semester projects that students normally do are replaced by the projects that are assigned at their work sites. In order to increase learning efficiency, co-op students can apply what they learned at their companies towards competencies for IRE. Most of the learning is independent, but co-op students are required to meet once a week to attend seminars and work on competencies. Under this structure, students get experience using metacognitive skills in the workplace while being able to graduate within four years.
