Corporate Partners

Once enrolled at the university, many students help to meet their expenses by joining the cooperative education program. Many corporations partner with the College to provide opportunities for students to obtain summer work experience or cooperative education assignments. Corporate scholarships are based on academic achievement in the College of Engineering. Students become eligible for corporate scholarships after completing their first semester in engineering. Eligible students will be notified of scholarship opportunities, invited to participate in interviews, and may be requested to complete any necessary forms. Some of the corporations currently partnering with MEP for internships or cooperative education positions are:

Abbott Laboratories Ford 3M
Alcoa General Electric Microsoft
Accenture  General Motors Northrop Grumman
Boeing Honeywell Procter & Gamble Company
BP Amoco INTEL Raytheon
Caterpillar International Truck & Engine Division SBC
