The Career Development Center, located on the second floor of the Kehoe Administration Building, in cooperation with our Department, administers programs that give students the opportunity to gain professional career-related experiences. These opportunities include:
Co-Ops and internships provide valuable work experience prior to graduation, enhance responsibility, maturity and self-confidence, and allow students to establish future employment contacts. Interested students should consult the newsletter published by Career Development Center that lists available jobs and application deadlines.
Internships are limited to students at the junior and senior level, and provide academic credit. Students involved in internships must be registered in CSC 498 before entering upon the internship. The number of credits to be awarded in an internship is determined by the Computer Science Department, based upon the experiences to be included, at the time of registration, with a grade (usually Pass or Fail) awarded upon submission of satisfactory documentation by the student and evaluation by the internship employer at the conclusion of the experience.
Co-Ops may be credit or non-credit paid work experiences. It is noted that the Department frowns upon the award of academic credit for paid experiences, unless there are extenuating circumstances. When credit is to be awarded, the procedures are the same as for an internship. Although Co-Ops are usually limited to students at the upper levels, some Co-Ops are suitable for freshman and sophomore level students.
Service Learning or Volunteer experiences are non-credit, non-paid placements open to all students. Volunteer experiences are ideal for students who are unsure of career choices since they provide an avenue for testing and evaluating various career options.
Whatever the student level, it is essential to plan and prepare early in your college career for the kind of hands on experience you desire. Therefore, new students are encourage to contact the Career Development Center as soon as possible. Students are encourage to work with their advisors as soon as they have determined that they would like to include a hands-on experience as a part of their college work.
