Cooperative Education: A Literature ReviewAbstractCooperative education began as an experiential education program for engineering students atthe University of Cincinnati in 1906 and remains a key component of many engineeringprograms nationwide[1]. Cooperative education provides opportunities for students to engage inexperiential education, integrating academic course work with practical work experience. Whilemany sources have commented on the affective benefits of cooperative education, this paperexamines the literature to assess the academic value of cooperative education.Faculty, Student and Employer Views on Cooperative EducationRelatively little is known about how engineering faculty value, account for, and
