Looking for a Summer Internship or Co-op Position?

Our Student Career Resources will assist you in preparing for a successful job search.

Since 1985, the Engineering Cooperative Education & Professional Internship Program at Penn State has helped more than 12,000 students to obtain career-related work experience prior to graduation. Ours is one of the largest optional cooperative education programs in the United States, and our students work for both large and small corporate and government entities across the nation and around the world.

We sponsor or co-sponsor a variety of engineering and technical co-op/internship and full-time recruiting events each year, bringing in close to 1,000 employers from government and industry who are seeking Penn State engineering students. We assist our employer partners with their strategic planning efforts for recruitment within the College of Engineering. We also help foster and strengthen partnerships between employers and Penn State faculty and research centers.

The Engineering Cooperative Education & Professional Internship Program will become the Engineering Career Resources & Employer Relations office in fall 2009. This name change reflects our broadened mission to offer not only co-op and internship experiences but also more general career-related and professional development resources for students, as well as expanded services for employers.
