Graduate Co-op Program - About Us
Graduate Co-op at Georgia Tech is an innovative approach to experiential learning. The program was established in 1983 and is currently the largest such program in the U.S for science and engineering. The program provides all graduate students at Georgia Tech the opportunity to work with leaders in their respective areas of study in industry and government. Students receive approval from their major school to work full or part-time assignments during any semester, but may not work more than two consecutive semesters before returning to school for classes.
