Multiple Engineering Cooperative Program

Program Highlights

The multiple Engineering Cooperative Program is a program available to students in disciplines related to the engineering industry.

We provide the best of both worlds—the University for the technical/theoretical background, and selected industries for the practical, state-of-the-art applications. Our goal is to supply the Northwest with the best engineers with the necessary tools to be true contributors in their chosen fields.
