Undergraduate Cooperative Education & Internship Program (CEIP)
Enrollment by college and major, by semester
Students in all undergraduate majors may enroll.
Enrollment numbers reflect students with an active work / school schedule who are either in school or at work during the listed semester.
(They are enrolled in CEP 4084 during work terms.)
Students who do a summer-only, one-term internship rarely do enroll in this program.
If they do, they are reflected in enrollment numbers beginning fall semester immediately following the work term.
Enrollment is only permitted for full-time (at least 32 hours per week); enrollment in CEIP is not for part-time or academic-credit-earning positions.
Engineering majors have accounted for 82% to 92% of enrollment over the last nine years.
Business majors have accounted for 5% to 11% of enrollment over the same period.
This simply reflects the co-op job market for career fields that attract those students.
You can also view employers of enrolled students, by student major.
