Cooperative Work Experience

Cooperative Work Experience Education (CWEE) is an academic program that strengthens student learning by engaging students of all majors in supervised on-the-job internships, paid or un-paid. CWEE is customized to fit the student's needs. There are no class meetings required for students, other than an initial orientation meeting with the CWEE Coordinator and meeting with work supervisors and faculty members to discuss learning objectives and job performance.

How to Enroll in CWEE

Read, print and follow the checklist on the "Student Responsibilities" page in the syllabus below. Registration occurs with CWEE Coordinator approval once all student paperwork and an orientation has been completed.

View CE 42 (Occupational) Syllabus

General work experience (CE 41) is for students working at a job unrelated to their educational goal/major.

Occupational work experience (CE 42) is for students whose job is related to their educational goal/major.

Contact CWEE Coordinator for an orientation.

In order for a student to officially enroll in CWEE, faculty members need to read the CWEE syllabus, sign the student's copy of the contract and create learning objectives with the student. All of the forms required are included in the syllabi (syllabi linked in this section).

At the beginning of the semester, the supervising faculty member supports the student's success by developing and monitoring learning objectives with the student, which are later presented to work supervisor for approval. Learning objectives specifically describe what it is that the student intends to accomplish that semester at the job site based upon the needs of the work site.

During the semester, the faculty member meets at least once with the work supervisor at the job site to discuss student learning objectives and job performance.

At the end of the semester, the faculty member completes a 1-page evaluation of the CWEE program/CWEE Coordinator and meets with the student to review evaluations and confirm hours met before entering a grade.
