 Co-op program is a program that we run through the college that allows students to gain industry experience through employment while they're in school. Co-op is a long-term internship, so you rotate between work semesters and school semesters. They're actually doing engineering work, they're being paid to do that work, and they also earn academic credit. So the things you do at a co-op are a little different than what you learn in the classroom. So like we take labs and stuff in the classroom. You're given clear instructions and like a clear guide of how to go about stuff as opposed to in a co-op when you're given a task. It's kind of you just get thrown in there and you have to problem-solve yourself and figure out the solution. A lot of my classes, they are really introducing the things that I actually already learned at my co-op. I got to experience firsthand what it was like to be an engineer. We are treated like full-time employees and they give us projects as if we're full-time engineers and preparing us for that role. Well I think for students, a co-op program at some point really helps you figure out what you want to do. And you learn things you like, things you don't like, and it really can help you channel what your first job is going to be once you graduate. So it was really a warning to kind of discover what you wanted to know, discover what you wanted to do with the rest of your life and your career path, and at the same time do valuable work for your company. I think they tend to pull more out of their classroom experience once they've been in co-op because they have a much better picture of where does all of this science, math, engineering stuff play in terms of actual work world experience? I thought co-oping would be integral in your career development. There's learning that you learn in school and then there's learning that you learn on the job. And you really need that to set yourself apart from other candidates as you go into the work world. Once you actually get that industry exposure, you realize what your classes are for and why you ended up choosing your major. Also I do think that bringing in students in their co-ops can also infuse a different way of thinking into a company. It's a tremendous value for not only the benefits to the co-op student but also for us as a company as well. It's kind of a win-win. They need students to do some of these jobs and the engineers here need the help too and the co-ops need the experience. A lot of our engineers were co-op students as well so we have about 80% of our engineers were co-ops. What it says for us is industry has a lot of respect for what we do with our engineers, the way we educate our engineers, the way we prepare them to be leaders at the companies. I think that's a testament to the market university, the caliber of the students that they have, the people that they have in place with the outreach and coordination between those companies. I think it's just a phenomenal testament to the program. I talked to employers about what they love about our engineers and they're not afraid of their hands dirty and really do some of the tough work. This year we're celebrating 100 years of our co-op program in the College of Engineering. I'm so proud of how innovative Marquette is. So this milestone really represents something that we want to be known about and that's being a place where we're innovative and entrepreneurial. It's definitely impressive. I think it really shows Marquette's involvement with a student's development. It's amazing that at that time 100 years ago that they had the forethought of kind of building professional experience at the academic level. You know it's obviously advancing a lot of people in general in their careers and helping them out and it's going to probably continue to do that for many years to come. I'm definitely really grateful for all of the exposure and all of the industry involvement that Marquette does for its students. I feel like just being a part of the co-op program and just being a part of working here at a company like this, I'm just a little grateful for the opportunity. I would not change it for anything. It shaped me into who I am today. It's nice to be able to go home every day and know that you're making a difference and you're helping people in need. We're making a difference in their workforce, we're making a difference in their companies and we're making a difference in the technologies that are being developed in the world.
