Cooperative Education is an organized program of study and educational field experience available throughout your college career. 

You must enroll in the appropriate co-op seminar and field experience related to your academic or occupational goals. An instructor-coordinator will teach the co-op seminar and assist you in locating an appropriate full or part time field site. If you are currently employed the instructor-coordinator will determine if the work site is appropriate for a co-op field experience in your field of study. As a co-op student, you may receive cooperative education credit for paid or volunteer positions.

Credit for the field experience is based on a minimum of 33 hours of work per academic credit. One to eight credits may be earned each quarter, up to a maximum of 18 credits for your career at SFCC. Some programs limit the number of credits that can be earned each quarter, so be sure to check with the appropriate instructor-coordinator. Three credits per quarter is the average. The co-op seminar is taken in conjunction with the field experience.
