CAREERS & JOB PLACEMENT

The Co-op and Placement Office can also help you secure a permanent, full-time job as you near graduation.

Did you know?

Full-time salaries are likely to be higher if you participate in a co-op than a similar-degree student who has not participated in the program. Employers report that they are more likely to hire someone with co-op experience than without. Even if you are looking for a different type of permanent, full-time experience from what the co-op provided, we can still help and provide guidance with your next steps after graduating.

The average starting salary of UA engineering, engineering technology and computing degree recipients is $70,000.

99 percent of spring 2023 engineering bachelor's degree recipients participated in at least one form of experiential learning before graduating.

If you never had a co-op, we can still help.

The Co-op and Placement Office can help any undergraduate engineering student with permanent placement, regardless of whether or not you have held a co-op position as an engineering student.

“The Co-op and Placement Office made planning for post-grad life so easy! They consistently sent out my resume to their corporate connections on my behalf. When they heard about a newly posted position at a local engineering firm, they called me right away. They are completely committed to student success.”

— Juan Camacho, B.S. in Biomedical Engineering, '19
