Cooperative Education

Extend classroom learning into the workplace to earn real-world job experience – and a paycheck.
Get Started
Career building. Before you graduate.
A Pillar of Cincy State
Cincinnati State was the first two-year college in the U.S. to create a mandatory co-op program.
Employer Connections
The co-op program boasts relationships with more than 500 employers in the Cincinnati area and nationwide.
Real Rewards
合作社 means getting a paycheck as you learn – and many engagements lead to job offers on graduation
Tailored Experiences
雇主 tailor 15-week job assignments to fit their needs, guaranteeing a meaningful student experience – not a show internship.
