Local students participate in Fall 2024 Cooperative Education
Special to the Enquirer
This fall, 110 University of Alabama students are receiving hands-on, innovative and advanced educational experiences with dozens of companies and organizations across the United States through UA’s Cooperative Education Program during the fall 2024 semester.
Two local students are participating. Braden Bevis of Hartselle is working for Evonik. Isaac Nicholson of Hartselle is working for Hoar Program Management.
In the Cooperative Education Program, students alternate periods of full-time study with periods of fulltime employment. This program offers work related to the academic major or career interests of each student.
While in school, students carry regular course schedules. While on co-op, they work with professionals in their fields who supervise their training and work. At work, co-op students earn competitive salaries and may receive benefit packages in addition to valuable job experience. Participants maintain their full-time student status while at work and have priority registration status each semester through graduation.
