Cooperative Education
As a fundamental part of Wentworth education, the Institute requires students to complete two cooperative education semesters in work placements. These can be anywhere in the world and are always related to the career major of the student to prepare students for postgraduate work or further study. By the end of the two mandatory co-op semesters, students should be better prepared to enter the work force with considerable experience.

Famous quotes containing the words cooperative and/or education:
“Then we grow up to be Daddy. Domesticated men with undomesticated, frontier dreams. Suddenly life—or is it the children?—is not as cooperative as it ought to be. It’s tough to be in command of anything when a baby is crying or a ten-year-old is in despair. It’s tough to feel a sense of control when you’ve got to stop six times during the half-hour ride to Grandma’s.”
—Hugh O’Neill (20th century)
“He was the product of an English public school and university. He was, moreover, a modern product of those seats of athletic exercise. He had little education and highly developed muscles—that is to say, he was no scholar, but essentially a gentleman.”
—H. Seton Merriman (1862–1903)
