Enhancing the Co-op Learning Experience
Abstract
The University of Louisville Speed School of Engineering operates on the premise that experiential education, specifically cooperative education, is a required and essential element of engineering education. UofL Speed School has a mandatory cooperative education program in which students alternate semesters of course work with three semesters of full-time co-op work experience. This paper describes a number of initiatives we have pursued during the last eighteen months to enhance the student’s co-op learning experience:
