Co-op & Internship Program Forms & Requirements 

All students in the College of Engineering are eligible to participate in the co-op and internship program upon completion of one full semester in the College. Undergraduates seeking this option must have at least a cumulative GPA of 2.0 and masters candidates must have a 3.0. The Co-op/Internship program recommends that students begin their search early so that they may get co-op or internship experience starting the summer after their freshman year. Students have completed co-op and internship assignments at many companies throughout the Midwest and world.

To be competitive when applying for jobs after graduation, students need to have some type of co-op or internship experience. Many of the companies who recruit our students tell us they will not even consider for an interview a student who has had no co-op or internship experience or other career-related experience.

Participation in a co-op or internship is highly recommended. Please contact Phil Jordan, Director, Professional Development, at philip-jordan@uiowa.edu, or click on the links for
