AB  - Aligning Internship, Co-op and New Graduate Engineering Rotation Programs to                        Improve Experiential Learning  It has become extremely important that engineering students participate in relevant industry  experience prior to graduation to become sufficiently qualified as the next generation of  technological innovators. Through a structured development process aligning Internship, Co-op and  New Graduate Engineering Programs within one organization, _____ Corporation has been  successful in providing significant relevant industry experience to current engineering students  during their academic development periods while shortening the time a recent graduate in  engineering is required to participate in a rotation program before feeling comfortable in becoming a  long-term fixture in the organization. The _______ Corporation has a developed solid processes and  experiencing successful early integration of university engineering students into the organization  who become; assimilated quicker, demonstrate a greater engagement than most recent graduates, and  offer more productive experiences, while providing a significant advantage over other corporations  in the hiring process. The integrated program satisfies both the student’s and the corporation’s  desire to provide relevant experiences while offering the ability for students to “try out” the  corporation and the corporation to “try-out” the engineering student for full-time consideration upon  graduation from either an undergraduate or graduate engineering program.  To develop an integrated program that provides relevant work experiences while meeting customer  and corporate goals, each of the integrated program elements must be; proposed and “sold” to the  internal (hiring) organizations, be vetted as individual programs, and carefully aligned and integrated  such that the organization embraces the structure and expenses involved in creating these early  career development opportunities. The Development Programs Office has two customers in his  scenario; the eventual hiring organization and the soon to be new graduate engineering student who  will have multiple opportunities to select their 1st professional employment position upon  graduation.  After having successfully proposed, piloted and integrated a successful Internship / Co-op/ and new  graduate rotational program in engineering across one the country of one Sector at _______  Corporation, the push for constant evaluation and improvement continues. After three months of  significant research and development ____ will be extending the Internship Program of the  Integrated Experiential Learning Program within the Development Programs Office to allow for  part-time year-round positions for local university students to supplement the permanent workforce  during 10 – 14 week internships during the traditional academic sessions.Aligning Internship, Co-op and New Graduate Engineering Rotation Programs                      to Improve Experiential Learning                                                         Professional Development                                                         Rotational Program (PDP)                  Co-op   Campus                                              Talent   Recruiting                                              Pipeline   Programs               Internship                                   Direct Placement                                                            Hire (DP)                Corporate STEM                Programs                 WORTHY                 AHE scholarships                 ES Engineering Scholars                 Other special scholarships                Referrals                Unsolicited  1                                                              9/16/2011
