Co-op Clemson undergraduates have worked at more than 360 companies through Cooperative Education. Students who co-op are able to apply what they learn in class to actual projects at work. This planned, voluntary program creates job opportunities for students, who alternate periods of academic study with periods of related work in a participating business, industry, agency or organization.
