Cooperative Education

The Cooperative Education (co-op) Program provides opportunities to supplement coursework with practical work experience related to your educational and occupational goals. You can earn college credit for working part-time in areas directly related to your program of study. Your program of study may require a co-op field experience, or you may elect to do a co-op to document related work experience on your college transcript. To see the syllabus click here: Co-op Syllabus.

You may elect to earn one to six credits per semester with a discounted tuition rate. For more information, contact the cooperative education coordinator on your campus. In order for registration to be accepted, you must have the permission of the coordinator to enroll.

Walt Disney World Cooperative Education Opportunity
Co-op has a special partnership with the Walt Disney World (WDW) College Program. Each semester a WDW recruiter selects Cochise College students for paid internship opportunities in the Orlando, Florida theme park. Program interns earn six units of college credit upon successful completion of their internship.

You can learn more about the WDW College Program by attending an information session with a Walt Disney recruiter. Sessions are held once a semester on both the Douglas and Sierra Vista Campuses. Candidates must be presently enrolled as a Cochise College student, have completed 12 units prior to departure, and have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0. Watch for posters on campus advertising the dates of the next presentation. For more details, contact the Career Services Center on your campus. For general information, you can link to the WDW College Program web page by clicking here:  Walt Disney World College Program.
