Engineering Education, 2020 Understanding How Co-op Students View their LearningAbstractThis research paper discusses student perspectives on learning while on co-op and suggests waysto improve co-op experiences for students. Successful outcomes of co-op, like graduating withhigher GPAs [1], [2], having an easier time transitioning into full-time work [3], or beginningwith higher starting salaries [2], [4] have been discussed in the past, however, little is formallydocumented on the ways in which co-op provides these benefits. These benefits could be realizedthrough many different pathways which may include students improving technical and/orprofessional skills, refining their identity, and increasing their self-efficacy, among

Such clubs help build apipeline towards Technology and Engineering careers. As technology education in after-schoolprograms continue to flourish, future studies should be conducted to investigate the benefit ofcorporate and community partnerships, especially from the perspective of the 30% of surveyrespondents who felt that a major barrier to having an outstanding technology education programin their school was due to a “lack of financial support.” Studies should also assess theaffordances of these afterschool informal settings in generating student, particularly female

students are still on track to graduate in four years. § Within the institution, the Mathematics and Engineering Programs have developed a strong partnership. Communication between the two programs has grown through the course creation, placement of students, and monitoring of student progression. This communication has expanded into providing connections within additional course and program topics, as well as cross-listing a handful of upper level courses. The cross- listed courses enable focused students to earn a dual major in Engineering and Mathematics. § The Mathematics and Engineering departments have created a team atmosphere amongst faculty, thus
